Understanding Nutrition 15th Edition PDF

Understanding Nutrition presents the core information of an introductory nutrition course. The early chapters introduce the nutrients and their work in the body, and the later chapters apply that information to people’s lives-describing the role of foods and nutrients in energy balance and weight control, in physical activity, in the life cycle, in disease prevention, in food safety, and in hunger.

[…] We have learned from the thousands of professors and more than a million students who have used this book through the years that readers want an understanding of nutrition so they can make healthy choices in their daily lives. (Understanding Nutrition 15th Edition; Eleanor Noss Whitney, Sharon Rady Rolfes; Cengage Learning [2018]; Preface: Page xiii)
