Reviews from Amazon users, collected at the time the book is getting published on UniedVRG. It can be related to shiping or paper quality instead of the book content:

⭐ Very useful! Everything you need to know clinically for nutrition is included in this booklet. Would definitely recommend!

⭐ The book itself is good but Amazon incorrectly listed as a hardcover. Was sent the softcover spiral bound version. Amazon should correct this irritating typo asap.

⭐ I need this for my clinical rotations and classes and the time from when I ordered it to the time I got it was quick. I don’t have prime so I expect things to take longer and even without it it was very fast. A classmate also ordered it and it arrived next day so I recommend if this is something you need.

⭐ As a novice Dietetic Technician, this book helps give me confidence in my clinical decision making. It literally has everything.

⭐ Anyone working in clinical nutrition/dietetics should have a copy of this book! Up-to-date information on critical disease states, assessments, lab values and more.

⭐ excellent book good size to carry on placement

⭐ The actual content of the book is fantastic – I work in an outpatient role and I love that it covers such a huge variety of clinical practice areas in a tiny package.What I don’t love is that the format is incorrectly listed as hardcover – the book is actually spiral-bound, and it’s not as durable as what would be ideal for something that’s used on a daily basis. The description should be updated ASAP, particularly to reflect value and lifespan for pricing. I hope the publisher will consider making the next edition a bit tougher to withstand everyday use.One note: it’s US-based, so occasionally the units aren’t given as used in Canada or internationally or everywhere else in the world (a few of the diabetes drugs brands are different). If this book could include metric units and be a hardcover in the next edition, I feel like it should be a required material for practicing students. The appendix lists the DRIs, conversion factors, lists of food servings for important nutrients, and a lengthy list of drug-nutrient interactions (with generic names, so Canadian-friendly there). I’m sure it will only continue to improve with time, and am grateful I didn’t have to spend hours compiling this info on my own to keep in one place. I’d give 4.5 stars if the option were there.
