Great Text Book October 23, 2008
I am using this book in my undergrad college course. It is great. I find it way more helpful than the professor's presentations when it comes to my exams. She is using it more for a reference than teaching from it, but it is most definitely worth the $$ and much cheaper here than buying through the college book store where it was $40 more expensive. Great buy for anyone interested in learning about nutrition.
One of the best text books I have had October 3, 2008
I recently used this book for class and found it so easy to use, straight forward and accurate. The version I received also had an accompanying CD which may or may not come with this version from Amazon.
This book covers the basics from the different types of nutrients to in depth details of vitamins, minerals, weight loss, child nutrition, and exercise.
Be sure that your professor wants the 7th edition, otherwise buy the one they are requesting. My professor was working off of the 6th edition and said that the 7th was fine but it is not! They moved some things around so you are working on different page numbers and there is not alcohol section in this book like there is in the 6th edition.
Other than that, I love this book and it is one of the few that I am not reselling. Good for a student, or anyone trying to learn more about nutrition and becoming healthy, active and a proper weight.

This textbook is really informative and understandable!
It is required text for my graduate Nutrition class and I am happy that the professor has chosen it.
