CLINICAL NUTRITION
The Interface Between Metabolism,
Diet, and Disease

The field of clinical nutrition as a whole seeks to consider the nutrition of
patients within the healthcare system, paying attention to the interactions
between diet, nutrition, and disease. To that end, this book discusses nutrition as both a contributing and managing factor in relation to diseases
such as obesity and diabetes. It also presents malnutrition as a contributing
factor to such diseases and considers the efficacy of micronutrient supplementation. It ends by looking at some of the recent developments and
future trends in the field of clinical nutrition.
