About the Book
Nutrition Across The Life Span is a comprehensive guide aimed at students and healthcare professionals seeking a deeper understanding of nutritional needs throughout different life stages. The book applies physiological and biochemical principles, drawing on current research to explore the nutrition required at various stages—from embryo development to old age.
The text covers topics such as nutrition during reproduction, growth, development, maturation, and aging, and examines how social, economic, physiological, and lifestyle factors influence nutrition status and food choices. It also addresses the importance of using nutritional principles to plan dietary changes.
The author, with extensive experience in nutrition counseling and education, first introduces foundational information like dietary standards, nutrition labeling, and nutrition assessment skills. The book then covers specific life stages, focusing on nutrition during pregnancy, breastfeeding, infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, including nutrition considerations for children with developmental delays or disabilities.
Further chapters delve into promoting health and reducing chronic disease risk in adults, alongside addressing eating disorders and fitness across the life span.
