- Summary:
- Nutritionists Samour and King supply nutrition students and practitioners with a 21-chapter guide to the basics of working with various pediatric age groups and diseases and conditions. The text is a consolidated version of the fourth edition of Pediatric Nutrition, which includes evidence-based research, discussion of clinical decisions, and best-practice guidelines. This text outlines the core best-practice guidelines for the most necessary information on the normal child, from preconception through adolescence, as well as infants and children with diseases and conditions affecting nutritional status. These conditions include food hypersensitivities, obesity and eating disorders, inborn errors of metabolism, developmental diseases, diseases of various body systems, HIV/AIDS, oncology and sickle cell disease, and burns, and enteral nutrition and herbs and phytomedicines. Contributors are nutritionists, dietitians, pediatricians, and other specialists working in the US. A code provides online access to the 2010 Dietary Guidelines, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts, Tanner Stages of Sexual Development, Recommended Dietary Allowances and Dietary Reference Intakes, and conversion tables.
