This authoritative book by a nutrition specialist is the first of its kind to give measurements required by nutritionists, dietitians, and physicians. Though without an exercise program of its own, this concise handbook provides the rational bases for exercise and diet, and can be used in conjunction with any exercise program or diet regimen.
All of the information given here is in easy-to-use tabular form. The precise calorie values for over six hundred foods, by specific weight of portions, are given--all completely indexed.
