Nutrition is viewed traditionally as the specific dietary
requirements of different age groups, without exploring diet in the
context of a life-long contributory factor to well-being. Nutrition
Through the Life Cycle summarises what is known about the
relationship between diet and health at different points in the
life cycle, and the nutritional requirements of individuals of
different ages. Nutrition policy and health promotion are
discussed, together with how dietary interventions can provide
long-term benefits to individuals and populations. Also covered are
the major dietary challenges that exist in modern society,
including the rise in incidence of obesity in both children and
adolescents, anaemia in children and adolescents, and diet-related
cancers. This book is published in association with Leatherhead
Food International.
