Patients are looking for credible information from their health care providers about a whole range of subjects covered here, including ß-carotene, lycopene, antioxidants, folate, and the myriad of bioactive phytochemicals found in garlic and other foods. With sections on cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and pregnancy among many others, this volume will be of great value to practicing health professionals, including physicians, nutritionists, dentists, pharmacists, dieticians, health educators, policy makers, health economists, regulatory agencies and research investigators. An entire section covers nutrition transitions around the world including Eastern Europe, Latin America and Asia as well as goals for preventive nutrition in developing countries.   Preventive Nutrition: The Comprehensive Guide for Health Professionals, 5th Ed. is an important resource for thousands of health professionals who have been utilizing the previous editions since 1997.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52136998142225,"sku":"NLS9783319793979","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783319793979.jpg?v=1757556163"},{"product_id":"antioxidant-nutrients-and-immune-functions-book-adrianne-bendich-9781461278634","title":"Antioxidant Nutrients and Immune Functions","description":"The detenmnation of optimal nutritional status has traditionally been based upon generalized parameters such as weight gain and body fat levels. Vitamin and mineral requirements were often related to the intakes needed to prevent overt signs of deficiency diseases such as beriberi or scurvy. However, in the past decade or so, there have been intensive investigations to determine the subtle changes in physiological functions associated with marginal micronutrient intakes. There is a growing consensus that immune system activities are very sensitive indicators of micronutrient status. During this decade, there has also been a rapid expansion of research in the role of free radicals and antioxidants in the major chronic diseases which afflict mankind( i.e. cancer, cardiovascular disease,and autoimmune disease). The main function of antioxidant nutrients in an appropriate diet is the prevention of oxidative damage to cells and their physiological functions. Antioxidant nutrients counteract free radicals and damaging oxidative actions on cell membranes. Since the cells of the immune system are rapidly differentiating and proliferating, such dividing and transforming cells are particularly susceptible to damage by oxidation. The interactions of antioxidant nutrition and immune system activities and disease resistance are therefore logical areas for research. Thus, the objective of this symposium was to bring together the leading investigators who have examined the immunological effects of dietary essential nutrients which share the capacity to act as antioxidants.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52143753789713,"sku":"NLS9781461278634","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781461278634.jpg?v=1757585836"},{"product_id":"primary-and-secondary-preventive-nutrition-book-adrianne-bendich-9780896037588","title":"Primary and Secondary Preventive Nutrition","description":"The Nutrition and Health series has been very fortunate to have each of the volumes recognized by rating services, such as Doody's, as valuable contributions for health professionals and individuals interested in the most up-to-date and balanced information from the experts in nutrition.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52148514160913,"sku":"NLS9780896037588","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780896037588.jpg?v=1757603805"},{"product_id":"primary-and-secondary-preventive-nutrition-book-adrianne-bendich-9781617371738","title":"Primary and Secondary Preventive Nutrition","description":"The Nutrition and Health series has been very fortunate to have each of the volumes recognized by rating services, such as Doody's, as valuable contributions for health professionals and individuals interested in the most up-to-date and balanced information from the experts in nutrition.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52455500546321,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52455501103377,"sku":"NLS9781617371738","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781617371738.jpg?v=1759374484"},{"product_id":"preventive-nutrition-book-adrianne-bendich-9783319224305","title":"Preventive Nutrition","description":"With sections on cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and pregnancy among many others, this volume will be of great value to practicing health professionals, including physicians, nutritionists, dentists, pharmacists, dieticians, health educators, policy makers, health economists, regulatory agencies and research investigators.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52655010578705,"sku":"NLS9783319224305","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783319224305.jpg?v=1762218615"},{"product_id":"preventive-nutrition-book-adrianne-bendich-phd-9781475762457","title":"Preventive Nutrition","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52668533178641,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52668533932305,"sku":"NLS9781475762457","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781475762457.jpg?v=1762285255"},{"product_id":"preventive-nutrition-book-adrianne-bendich-phd-9781475762433","title":"Preventive Nutrition","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52684272861457,"sku":"NLS9781475762433","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781475762433.jpg?v=1762322656"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-adrianne-bendich.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
