Nutrition research has moved from a field often associated with personal preferances in what food we consume to a field closely connected with medicine and health in ways never before considered. In fact, nutrition may be the least understood yet most crucial field of biology and medicine. Diet therapy deals with actions designed to counter or prevent disease. This book presents important new research in the field.
