SummaryTable of Contents
Nutrition & Diet Therapy 9e gives nurses a solid foundation in the basic principles and concepts of good nutrition, allowing them to help clients debunk popular nutrition myths and move toward better health through nutritional awareness. Three simple concepts provide the broad organizational structure of the book: Section 1 covers the fundamentals of nutrition; Section 2 explains how to maintain good health through nutrition; and Section 3 addresses the nutrition therapy concepts students need to know as future nurses.
