What is Food, People, and Nutrition about?
Abstract: People and food interactions determine what and how much is eaten. In order to help people choose a nutritious diet, information on nutrient requirements, and nutrient composition of foods and the effect of variations in nutrient supply or demand are presented. Knowledge from several disciplines in food and nutrition science are combined: whole body and cellular nutrition; life cycle nutrition; food technology; meal management; and the cultural aspects of foods. The effect of nutritional status on cells and specialized organs is discussed. Man's relation to the food environment (food ecology) is described. Other chapters cover dietary assessment, nutritional risk and life expectancy, nutrition for special groups, and the food and nutrition delivery system
