Nutrition and Dietetics for Health Care: 10ed

This book provides an introduction to nutrition and dietetics from a health care perspective. It goes beyond what can be found in general nursing texts while remaining at a level suitable for the pre-registration student. The text comprehensively covers the whole area of dietetics and nutrition with the topics divided into three sections:-The science of nutrition, Community Nutrition and Therapeutic nutrition and dietetics. It is therefore useful as a reference text for those already working in the field of patient care. It has been revised completely to include the latest government guidelines on nutrition.

  • Updated to include recent COMA (Committee on Medical Aspects of Food Policy) recommendations regarding diet and cancer and coronary heart disease
  • Comprehensive coverage of a wide range of topics and client groups including
  • The science of food-outlines principles of good nutrition
  • Community Nutrition-covers all aspects of nutritional care for members of the community including those with special needs
  • Therapeutic Nutrition and dietetics-outlines those therapeutic diets most usually used for the treatment of disease.
  • Information presented in a clear and attractive way
  • The author is recognised and well respected in the field of nutrition and dietetics. She has experience of teaching a wide range of students (nursing, dietetics, pharmacy, biological sciences) and is thus best placed to understand the information needs of these students
  • The book's elementary nature makes it ideal for students who lack knowledge about nutrition and dietetics. It can also act as a reference publication for those already working in the area. In both instances it will boost confidence and promote good practice
  • New Chapters on
  • Public Health Nutrition
  • Malnutrition in hospitals
  • Diet and cancer
  • Diet and HIV infection
  • Food Standards Agency
  • Fully Updated Illustrations and References
