Nutrition and diet therapy : self-instructional modules
"The third edition of Nutrition and Diet Therapy continues to be the only self-instructional nutrition and diet therapy book on the market. This unique approach is perfect for courses in which there is a need for a self-paced approach with student progress checks so that readers can work at their own pace. The inclusion of posttests facilitates distance learning. All of the book's modules have been updated to reflect the most current information and research available on normal and therapeutic nutrition. Nutrition and Diet Therapy is an invaluable resource to students (LPN/LVN), dietetic technicians (DTR), dietetic assistants, and others for whom nutrition and diet therapy is required or encouraged to round out their education." "Special features - new or expanded modules to cover such topics as: the 1994 labeling laws and regulations, the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP), 1994 Food Guide Pyramid, and 1995 Dietary Supplement Act; major revisions or updates on vitamins; minerals; diabetes; cardiovascular disorders; diseases of the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas; renal disease; cystic fibrosis, AIDS, eating disorders; weight control; drugs and nutrition, revised appendices on Canada's 1992 Food Guide for Healthy Eating and Recommended Nutrient Intake (RNI); Dietary Guidelines for Americans; Healthy Weights for Adults; 1990 Growth Grids and the 1995 Exchange Lists for Meal Planning."--Jacket
