This text presents an overview of the special nutritional issues common at the different periods of the life cycle. It stresses the impact of nutrition on quality of life at each stage of development and features the latest thinking on contemporary issues and current research.
This was a text for one of my nutrition courses in school, and when I found out I was pregnant, I immediately went out and bought it again. I think its really useful for those trying to stay healthy and really understand maternal and child nutrition. It's a bit heavy for those without some clinical knowledge.
