Book excerpt: The explosion of knowledge about satiety and hunger has given new meaning to our understanding of the genetics of obesity. New interest in gene expression as related to nutrition and advances in the field of macronutrients has made the latest nutrition research intriguing. Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients adopts an integrated approach to the understanding of macronutrient nutrition. It provides scientific foundations of the current findings on energy balance, protein need, gene expression, and carbohydrate and lipid use, and maintains emphasis on the biochemical and physiological basis for nutrient need.

This book was released on 2017-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While written from a nutritional sciences perspective, Advanced Nutrition and Regulation of Metabolism is a reference source that emphasizes regulation of proteins and gene expression. The focus is on the function of nutrients, how function relates to deficiency and its symptoms, how both of these relate to assessment, and how this is achieved during the fed-fasted cycle. After reviewing cell biology and basic biological concepts, the book discusses digestion and absorption, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, water-soluble vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins, and minerals. Students learn how these are all structured and absorbed, become familiar with the nomenclature, and study their impact on metabolism, as well as other essential biological functions. Each chapter includes specific objectives and outcomes to guide student learning, reflection, discussion, comprehension questions, and an application opportunity. Designed for students who are already familiar with introductory and intermediate nutritional sciences, Advanced Nutrition and Regulation of Metabolism assumes that readers have a background in cell biology, biochemistry, and physiology. The book is well-suited to advanced nutritional sciences courses, as well as some classes in animal science, kinesiology, genetics, and biochemistry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published on behalf of The British Dietetic Association, Advanced Nutrition and Dietetics in Diabetes is an exploration of the evidence and practice of nutrition in diabetes, offering a global view of the lifestyle interventions for the prevention and management of diabetes, including management of complications and special population groups. With internationally recognised authors, this book applies the rigour of evidence-based medicine to important enduring topics in diabetes, such as: public health efforts at diabetes prevention formulating nutritional guidelines for diabetes carbohydrates and the glycaemic index the management of diabetes in older people The authors draw on their research and practical experience to offer sound guidance on best practice, ensuring that interventions are both scientifically secure and effective. ABOUT THE SERIES Dietary recommendations need to be based on solid evidence, but where can you find this information? The British Dietetic Association and the publishers of the Manual of Dietetic Practice present an essential and authoritative reference series on the evidence base relating to advanced aspects of nutrition and diet in selected clinical specialties. Each book provides a comprehensive and critical review of key literature in its subject. Each covers established areas of understanding, current controversies and areas of future development and investigation, and is oriented around six key themes: Disease processes, including metabolism, physiology, and genetics Disease consequences, including morbidity, mortality, nutritional epidemiology and patient perspectives Nutritional consequences of diseases Nutritional assessment, drawing on anthropometric, biochemical, clinical, dietary, economic and social approaches Clinical investigation and management Nutritional and dietary management Trustworthy, international in scope, and accessible, Advanced Nutrition and Dietetics is a vital resource for a range of practitioners, researchers and educators in nutrition and dietetics, including dietitians, nutritionists, doctors and specialist nurses. Please note Due to recent developments in this area, Chapter 4.3 on Nutritional management of glycaemia in type 2 diabetes has been withdrawn from the publication, and all future reprints will be replaced by a new chapter. All ebook versions are already updated. The contributor retains copyright to this chapter whilst their name still appears associated to the chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having ensured a basic knowledge in nutrition with Introduction to Human Nutrition, this book allows students to explore nutrition and metabolism across the various systems of the body rather than to deal in advanced aspects of nutrition and metabolism on a nutrient by nutrient basis or by group of nutrients. Thus there is not an identifiable chapter on Vitamin A; this vitamin is covered in all of these chapters: The Nutrient Requirements of Tissues and Organs, The Sensory System, Molecular aspects of Nutrition, The Reproductive System, The immune and inflammatory System and Under-nutrition. Nutrition & Metabolism provides the student with the detailed information they need about how different nutrients effect and are required by different parts of the body. This allows the student to concentrate on parts of the body at one time rather than concentrating on each individual nutrient or mineral, making the information more assessable and easier to digest.
