Nutrition: Concepts & Controversies, 16 Edition

By Frances Sizer, Ellie Whitney Make better food choices and live a healthier life with NUTRITION: CONCEPTS AND CONTROVERSIES. More conversational than a pure-science text, this book explores the essentials of nutrition--including how the body breaks down and uses food, food safety, sports nutrition and special nutritional needs throughout the human life cycle--and asks you to weigh in on relevant debates, such as sustainable diets, the safety of supplements, genetically modified foods, how much is too much sugar, and keto and paleo diets. NUTRITION: CONCEPTS AND CONTROVERSIES is available with the MindTap learning platform, which offers self-quizzing and activities to propel your learning from memorization to mastery.
