Molecular Basis of Nutrition and Aging: A Volume in the Molecular
Nutrition Series focuses on the nutritional issues associated with
aging and the important metabolic consequences of diet, nutrition,
and health. The book is subdivided into four parts that reflect the
impact of nutrition from a biomolecular level to individual health.
In Part One, chapters explore the general aspects of aging, aging
phenotypes, and relevant aspects of nutrition related to the
elderly and healthy aging. Part Two includes molecular and cellular
targets of nutrition in aging, with chapters exploring lipid
peroxidation, inflammaging, anabolic and catabolic signaling,
epigenetics, DNA damage and repair, redox homeostasis, and insulin
sensitivity, among others. Part Three looks at system-level and
organ targets of nutrition in aging, including a variety of
tissues, systems, and diseases, such as immune function, the
cardiovascular system, the brain and dementia, muscle, bone, lung,
and many others. Finally, Part Four focuses on the health effects
of specific dietary compounds and dietary interventions in aging,
including vitamin D, retinol, curcumin, folate, iron, potassium,
calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, iodine, vitamin B, fish
oil, vitamin E, resveratrol, polyphenols, vegetables, and fruit, as
well as the current nutritional recommendations.
