## Description

The Science of Nutrition, Second Edition is uniquely organized using an applied approach, which organizes vitamins and minerals based on their functions and effects on the body. This applied approach is most evident in the functional organization of the micronutrient (vitamin and mineral) chapters. Rather than requiring you to memorize all the vitamins and minerals and their characteristics, the authors present them based on their functions (like fluid and electrolyte balance, antioxidant function, bone health, energy metabolism, and blood and immunity health), so that you can understand their effects on the body. The Second Edition adds new learning aids to further help you learn and apply the material. Additionally, learning aids have been expanded, including a new version of MyDietAnalysis, available in both online and CD-ROM formats.

Review: For College - It was useful for my college course but it was also great to learn about how i can get the best nutrition from food
Review: Great service - I just received my book I ordered in less than one week. The book was in almost perfect condition, just like promised. The cost was very low, one of the lowest prices for a used book, in spite of it's almost new condition. I'm pretty sure this book has not used before. Thanks for the great service!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great service
*by L***A on June 2, 2013*

I just received my book I ordered in less than one week. The book was in almost perfect condition, just like promised. The cost was very low, one of the lowest prices for a used book, in spite of it's almost new condition. I'm pretty sure this book has not used before. Thanks for the great service!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Educational Read
*by C***K on April 25, 2011*

This book is a good in-depth, involved study of nutrition, from a very scientific stand point. With that said, it's a little dry, and might put you to sleep, but if you continue reading it, even if you have to reread and reread it, you'll really grow in your knowlege of nutrition and how your body responds to what is put into it.
