UNDERSTANDING NORMAL AND CLINICAL NUTRITION, Seventh Edition, provides the most current and comprehensive coverage of both "normal" nutrition, such as digestion and metabolism, vitamins and minerals, and life cycle nutrition, as well as "clinical" nutrition related to diseases, such as nutrition and gastrointestinal, liver, and cardiovascular diseases. The text also incorporates a number of learning tools designed to help students both retain the information and apply their knowledge so they are better prepared to work in a clinical setting. Features include case studies, "How To" boxes with examples of problem-solving in real world situations, and study questions that further conceptual understanding of the material. Regardless of the students' course background, the text is organized and written in a clear, easy to follow format that will engage and enable them to be actively involved in the field of nutrition.

This best-selling introductory nutrition text is praised for its approachable narrative, engaging presentation, and careful explanations. The new twelfth edition of Whitney and Rolfes's Understanding Nutrition takes the study of nutrition to a new level with an emphasis on active learning, assignable content, and integrated resources. From its beautiful and carefully developed art program to its strong science base, contemporary coverage, and market-leading supplements, the twelfth edition of Understanding Nutrition connects with its readers and continues to set the standard for texts in this market.

I'm excited to announce that yet another new volume of my Latest in Nutrition DVD series is now available for pre-order and will ship out December 19--just in time to cement those new year's resolutions! (as always, all the proceeds I receive from the sale of all my DVDs go to charity).
Normally, I come out with just one volume a year, but to fulfill my promise of uploading a new video every day year-round to NutritionFacts.org I've had to step it up! As usual, I've scoured the world's scholarly literature on clinical nutrition for the most interesting, practical, and groundbreaking science published over the last 12 months on how best to feed ourselves and our families to prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic disease.

The fourth edition of this highly popular book has been extensively revised. The first chapter, a revision of the immune system, has been updated to provide the 'nitty-gritty' a student or trainee needs to know in order to understand diseases that have an immunological basis. The rest of the book's focus is clinical but covers the underlying pathophysiology of disease so that the reader is left with a lasting grasp of the basis of symptoms, signs, special investigations and management of the patient. It will be of great value to medical students and postgraduate trainees who require a thorough knowledge of the rapidly expanding number of diseases that have an immunological basis.
