Leading international researchers and clinicians comprehensively
review in detail what is known about the ability of diet to enhance
human immune function in health, disease, and under various
condition of stress. The authors offer state-of-the-art critical
appraisals of the influences on the human immune system of several
important vitamins and minerals both singly and in combination. The
authors also examine how nutrition modulates immune function in
various disease states and under three forms of stress-vigorous
exercise, military conditions, and air pollution. A much-needed
overview of the nutritional consequences of drug-disease
interactions provides recommendations for potential nutritional
interventions that could increase drug efficacy and/or reduce
adverse side effects. "Conclusions" and "Take Home Messages" at the
end of each chapter give physicians clinical instructions about
special diets and dietary components for many immune-related
disease states.
