Nutrition Guide
for Physicians and
Related Healthcare
Professionals

It has often been pointed out that there is a near absence of nutrition education during medical school.
If this deficiency is corrected during postgraduate medical training, it often owes more to accident
than design, or the personal interests of individual physicians. As a result most physicians presently

in practice have gaping holes in their knowledge of nutrition [1, 2]. This book is intended to help cor-
rect this deficiency.
