The Essential Pocket Guide for Clinical Nutrition

The Essential Pocket Guide for Clinical Nutrition

This is a quick reference for health professionals with a readable format, and clear tables and boxes for immediate access to evidence-based information on nutrition assessment, MNT, nutrition support, and life stages. It also includes nutrition considerations for specific diseases, laboratory assessments, and food-drug interactions.

Using this all-inclusive manual with relevant appendices, saves the clinician from carrying around separate resources. There is no comparable guide on the market that includes this comprehensive coverage of clinical nutrition.
