NUTRITION and GLOBAL HEALTH Nutrition and Global Health began as a
series of short literature reviews; since then, the work has become
an authoritative and highly accessible resource on the vast and
nuanced subject matter covered within. One of the major themes of
the work is integrating nutrition into other disciplines: with its
basis in biochemistry, human physiology, behavioural science, and
even political studies, nutrition is a vital component in the
success of interventions. This book will provide students and
practitioners with a roadmap for interpreting the global health
landscape and create links between nutritional physiology, policy,
and action. Based on widely used practices in global health,
Nutrition and Global Health covers topics including: Assessing
nutritional status, nutrition surveillance, nutrition and
infectious disease, and maternal and child nutrition Micronutrient
deficiencies (including but not limited to iron, iodine, vitamin A,
zinc, and folate), plus the nutritional double burden of disease
Food security, sustainable food and agriculture, working in the
global health environment, and nutrition in emergencies Answers to
the questions "How do I design an effective intervention?" and "How
can I decide whether or not my intervention has done what I
intended it to do? " Unlike long and complex policy documents which
rely on a solid foundation in basic sciences, Nutrition and Global
Health is an accessible resource that allows clinicians, policy
makers, and planners to better understand the global health
landscape and stage better interventions.
