Diet quality is a broad term that encapsulates both perceived and
actual practices, personal preferences and cultural diversity.
Measuring dietary quality can be problematic and includes
investigating food types, the number or size of portions or their
frequency. Diet quality may also be related to the type of food
being ingested, snacking and other eating habits. Manufactured
beverages and fast food may also be included as well as
microbiological quality and attempts to improve single food items
such as meats or vegetables. In this book, Diet Quality: An
Evidence-Based Approach, Volume 2 all of the major facets of diet
quality in relation to health outcomes are covered. This important
new text includes methods for determining diet quality while
adopting a holistic approach to impart information on the major
areas of concern or knowledge. Chapters link in measurable indices
of health such as obesity, pregnancy outcomes, cancer and cancer
outcomes, and mortality. This book represents a diverse set of
subject matters and seeks to fill a gap in the literature at a time
when there is an increasing awareness that well being is associated
with the qualitative nature of diets. Contributors are authors of
international and national standing and emerging fields of science
are incorporated. Diet Quality: An Evidence-Based Approach, Volume
2 is a useful new text designed for nutritionists, dietitians,
clinicians, epidemiologist, policy makers and health care
professionals of various disciplines.
