Recenzje

The book reviews the foundations of nutritional medicine, the role of physician nutrition specialists, and details of the unique assessments one can offer in this capacity. The book serves as a guide for using traditional tools (e.g., the history and physical exam, laboratory data combined with other datapoints such as indirect calorimetry) to arrive at a complete nutritional assessment. The structure of this book is that it can be read cover to cover incorporating a comprehensive way of assessing patients and a few exemplary cases.
