It will provide students who lack a strong science background the ideal balance of reliable nutrition information and practical consumer-oriented knowledge. With their friendly writing style, the authors act as the student's personal guide to dispelling common misconceptions and to gaining a solid foundation for making informed nutrition choices.

June 21, 2009: I am reading this text for a course, but recommend the material it covers for anyone interested in nutrition. It is VERY easy to read and understand. It also has a very nice format that includes definitions in the margins, photos, comics, etc.
