Essentials of Clinical Nutrition in Healthcare by Ellizabeth Frates

Proven methods for diagnosing and managing nutritional changes in patients with chronic diseases and conditions

Essentials of Clinical Nutrition in Healthcare fills the well-recognized evidence-practice gap between the nutrition knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed for nutrition care and the nutrition education provided by medical schools.

Focusing on nutrition and dietetics, it walks you through the process of maintaining patients’ energy balance while also providing sufficient nutrients, such as protein, vitamins, and minerals. Evidence-based chapters address the effects of diet on health and a comprehensive array of illnesses. Essentials of Clinical Nutrition for Healthcare is organized into three major sections:

• The fundamentals of nutrition and how it applies to clinical practice, including nutrition through the lifespan and personalized nutrition
• Diverse scenarios on how nutritional state and metabolism behave in a morbid condition
• Expert advice for counseling and coaching for behavior change to impact patients’ lifestyles

Covering specific topics ranging from cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and hypertension to depression, anxiety, and dementia, Essentials of Clinical Nutrition for Healthcare provides everything you need to know to stay ahead of the curve on this important topic.
