Nutrients in Foods is an excellent resource
for those interested in detailed, authoritative information regarding
food nutrients, nutrition standards, summary information about
each nutrient, and other related nutritional information. Written
in an easy-to-read format, and offering a user-friendly CD-ROM
for quick reference, this multi-faceted text is intended to better
assist students, nutritionists, researchers, and dieticians in
their work and studies. In addition, the reference code for each
food can be used in conjunction with leading nutrition software
packages such as The Food Processor®; Genesis R&D®; The Computer
Chef®; and the Nutrition Recipe Analyzer ™, to build instant nutrition
calculations for daily intakes, recipes or menus. Caloric tables,
weights and measures, conversion tables, and supplementary tables
listing amino acids, alcohol, caffeine, phytosterols, and purines
and salicylates in selected foods, are provided throughout the
text. A table focusing on sodium, potassium and chloride intake
is also provided for those working in the field of renal nutrition.
