Berdanier (nutrition, U. of Georgia) and Zempleni (nutrition, U. of Nebraska) present an updated version of this text for graduate students and professionals who have a background in biochemistry and physiology but may not have studied nutrition and dietetics. Discussion is anchored in the chemical foundations of nutrition processes. Coverage encompasses energy, regulation of food intake (including sensory perception of food), nutritional biochemistry, cell and life cycle, nutrigenomics and epigenetics, and the different classes of nutrients.
