| Abstract: | Part of the popular LPN Threads Series, Williams' Basic Nutrition & Diet Therapy is the market leader for a reason: you get coverage of hot topics, emerging trends, and cutting edge research, plus all the essentials for providing the best nutrition care. Written in a clear, conversational style, the book begins with the fundamental concepts of nutrition and then applies those concepts to diverse demographic groups in different stages of life. You also learn how selected disease processes work, and how to help communities and individuals achieve health and healthy living. A free CD contains Nutritrac, a computer program that helps you analyze case studies and create customized client profiles. ... A companion website contains case studies applying chapter content to real-life examples, 350 study questions for instant self-assessment, the most recent growth charts from the CDC, the ADA's Nutrition Care Process, and links to online information sources. ... Updated statistics on diseases and conditions illustrate emerging trends and hot topics such as obesity and supplement use. Updated Choose Your Foods: Exchange Lists for Diabetes in the appendix includes new content for culturally diverse populations. A new figure illustrates the complex processes of digestion and metabolism. Water Balance chapter includes the DRIs for fluids and provides the water content of selected foods. Nutrition in Infancy, Childhood, and Adolescence chapter adds information on the growing problem of overweight and obese children. Weight Management chapter covers food misinformation and fads, addressing the dangers and the groups vulnerable to such misinformation. Gastrointestinal and Accessory Organ Problems chapter includes recent research on the pathogenesis of celiac disease along with the principles and selected foods of the gluten-free diet for treatment.
