Dedicated chapters address wellness and personal nutrition, digestion and absorption, macronutrients, energy and weight, fitness, and vitamins and minerals. Students learn about nutrition across the lifespan and nutrition assessment and support. The effects of particular medical conditions-including metabolic stress, gastrointestinal and liver disease, diabetes, cardiovascular and pulmonary disease, renal disease, cancer, and HIV-on nutritional processes and bodily functions are addressed. Throughout, post-reading questions and exercises promote knowledge building and retention. Nutritional Foundations for Nursing is an ideal resource for courses and programs in nursing. It can also be used by individuals studying for the nursing registration exam.
