Bogert's Nutrition and Physical Fitness
註釋Abstract: Basic information about foods and nutrition is presented to help students develop good eating habits and positive health practices. Nutrients, nutrient functions, and food sources of nutrients are described. Food intake and utilization (digestion, absorption, metabolism, and excretion) are examined. Nervous and endocrine systems which regulate food consumption are discussed. Influences on nutrition (food habits, beliefs, production and marketing practices) are explored. Various aspects of applied nutrition are also addressed: adequate diets for healthy persons, pregnant and lactating women, infants and children; the role of nutrition in physical work and athletics; diet and dental health; overweight and underweight; and worldwide malnutrition.
