The importance of nutrition in the prevention and treatment of disease and the maintenance of good health is being increasingly recognised. Nutrition is an area that all health professionals need to be aware of and yet one in which few are specifically trained, however is now becoming a valued topic in many curricula. The OH Nutrition and Dietetics makes this information more accessible to dieticians, doctors, nurses, nutritionists and other healthcareprofessionals by providing a practical, easily accessible, concise and up-to-date evidence-based guide in a user-friendly portable handbook. It covers the entire life cycle from preconception to old age. As thegeneral public is increasingly aware of the food they eat and the role nutrition plays in health and disease, it is essential that health professionals have the kind of knowledge in this book at their fingertips.

Review from previous edition "This book fills an important gap. . . ideal for the busy practitioner or scholar of other disciplines who is eager to learn more about nutrition but hasn' t the time to do a lot of reading. Quick, concise and accurate information. . . highly commended. " * European Journal of Clinical Nutrition * ". . . worthy of a place in the clinician' s library of practical information. It enunciates the principles and contemporary science on which clinical (and, in large measure, public health) nutrition should be based on. " * Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition *
