Don't waste you time with health and diet Web sites that don't work
The Internet provides unlimited resources that make it easy to
learn about various diets, weight-loss programs, and
weight-reduction procedures. But with so many sources, which ones
can you trust for information that's safe, accurate, and
up-to-date? The Internet Guide to Medical Diets and Nutrition saves
you time, trouble, and effort in your search for Web sites that
offer the facts about diet programs and nutrition philosophies that
meet your health, medical, or religious needs. The Internet Guide
to Medical Diets and Nutrition helps you filter out Web sites that
offer little, if any, real help in maintaining special diets that
address specific diseases (low protein, high calcium, low gluten,
hypoallergenic, diabetes, cancer, anemia, etc.), religious or
philosophical mandates (Hindu, kosher, vegan, Muslim, macrobiotic,
etc.), or commercial regimens (Atkins, Weight Watchers (R),
NutriSystem (R), etc.), or provide answers to questions about
bariatric surgery (gastric bypass, stomach stapling, etc.). This
invaluable reference resource teaches you how locate Web sites
recommended to you, how to evaluate the information you find there,
how to research a particular diet or health concern, how to choose
and use the right search engine, the significance of domains in Web
addresses, and how to observe proper etiquette when participating
in Internet discussion groups. Topics examined in the Internet
Guide to Medical Diets and Nutrition include: general diet and
nutrition Web sites Web calculators (Body Mass Index, exercise,
calories, weight-maintenance, healthy weight) the nutrient content
of foods food labels non-surgical weight-loss Web sites caloric
restrictions hypnosis weight-loss centers and workshops weight-loss
surgery Web sites Web sites for specific medical conditions
vegetarianism recipes online discussion groups and much more! The
Internet Guide to Medical Diets and Nutrition also includes a
glossary of terms and screen captures of important Web sites. The
book is a must-have as an everyday resource for consumers with diet
and health interests and concerns, and as a reference tool for
medical and public libraries.
