Master the essentials of nutrition science and patient care with this concise text! Williams’ Essentials of Nutrition and Diet Therapy, 13th Edition helps you understand and apply nutrition concepts in the treatment of disease, disease prevention, and life enhancement. The text is broken out into three parts: the basics of nutrients and the body, the life cycle and community nutrition, and clinical nutrition. Case studies help you determine nutritional interventions in treating both acute and chronic conditions. Written by nutrition specialists Joyce Gilbert and Eleanor D. Schlenker, this book includes the latest advances in research and evidence-based practice.

  • Person-centered approach helps you develop practical solutions to individual problems, based on the authors’ personal research and clinical experience.

  • Health Promotion sections help you with nutrition education, stressing healthy lifestyle choices and prevention as the best medicine.
  • Case studies provide opportunities for problem solving, allowing you to apply concepts to practical situations in nutrition care.
  • Evidence-Based Practice boxes emphasize critical thinking and summarize current research findings.

I am a first year student pursuing MBBS. I am really grateful to medioks for being student oriented. I was looking for a book but I couldn't find it anywhere in the market. The high demand of the book made it very costly to afford online but when I found it on medioks, I was so happy to get? the original book at a reasonable cost.
