Focuses on normal human nutrition and physiologic function. Covers the structure, function, and nourishment of the cell, and reviews energy transformation. Discusses the metabolism of macronutrients, including a review of primary metabolic pathways for carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins, emphasizing reactions that have particular relevance for health. Includes chapters on dietary fiber and on the interrelationships among the macronutrient metabolic pathways as well as the metabolic dynamics of the feeding-fasting cycle. Covers nutrients considered regulatory in nature: the vitamins and the minerals, both macro and micro. Covers nutrient features such as digestion, absorption, transport, function, metabolism, excretion, deficiency, and toxicity. Discusses body fluid and electrolyte balance, body composition, energy balance and weight control, and nutrition and the central nervous system. Also discusses the types of research and the methodologies by which research can be conducted.
