What is Pediatric Nutrition in Clinical Practice (Clinical practice series) about?

Abstract: A practical approach to normal nutrition and common nutritional problems is presented for medical practitioners with patients from diverse ethnic and social backgrounds. The material covered does not approach the subject matter through a review of individual nutrients, rather, the text is patient-oriented for practical use by primary care physicians, pediatricians, nurse practitioners, and house officers. Following a discussion of basic nutrition knowledge, 2 major topics are covered: feeding of normal infants and children; and nutritional problems commonly encountered in pediatric practice. Topics addressed include: various ways of feeding normal children to ensure nutritional adequacy; nutritional advantages and problems of vegetarianism; iron deficiency anemia; diagnosis of lactose and milk intolerance; protein energy malnutrition; nutrient needs of premature infants; and the complex cultural and nutritional factors contributing to obesity.
