Handbook of Nutrition, Health, and Aging
註釋Abstract: A reference text for nutrition and health professionals covers various aspects of nutritional science and its relationships to health and aging on one hand, and the application of modern nutrition knowledge to individuals and population groups on the other. A total of 13 chapters are allocated to 2 major sections: specific characteristics of the topics of aging, nutrition, and health, and the interassociations of this triad; and the relationship and changing requirements of specific nutrients (chapters covering protein, fat, carbohydrate, minerals (and trace elements), vitamins, water, calories) to aging. Two additional chapters cover current federally-sponsored service programs in nutrition, health, and aging, and a discussion of the Administration on Aging (federal agency). Recommended dietary allowances and a list of 1062 references are appended. (wz).
