While written from a nutritional sciences perspective, Advanced
Nutrition and Regulation of Metabolism is a reference source that
emphasizes regulation of proteins and gene expression. The focus is
on the function of nutrients, how function relates to deficiency
and its symptoms, how both of these relate to assessment, and how
this is achieved during the fed-fasted cycle. After reviewing cell
biology and basic biological concepts, the book discusses digestion
and absorption, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, water-soluble
vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins, and minerals. Students learn how
these are all structured and absorbed, become familiar with the
nomenclature, and study their impact on metabolism, as well as
other essential biological functions. Each chapter includes
specific objectives and outcomes to guide student learning,
reflection, discussion, comprehension questions, and an application
opportunity. Designed for students who are already familiar with
introductory and intermediate nutritional sciences, Advanced
Nutrition and Regulation of Metabolism assumes that readers have a
background in cell biology, biochemistry, and physiology. The book
is well-suited to advanced nutritional sciences courses, as well as
some classes in animal science, kinesiology, genetics, and
biochemistry.
