Description
The Molecular Nutrition of Fats presents the nutritional and molecular aspects of fats by assessing their dietary components, their structural and metabolic effects on the cell, and their role in health and disease. Subject areas include molecular mechanisms, membranes, polymorphisms, SNPs, genomic wide analysis, genotypes, gene expression, genetic modifications and other aspects. The book is divided into three sections, providing information on the general and introductory aspects, the molecular biology of the cell, and the genetic machinery and its function. Topics discussed include lipid-related molecules, dietary lipids and lipid metabolism, high fat diets, choline, cholesterol, membranes, trans-and saturated fatty acids, and lipid rafts.
Reviews
Review “The primary purpose is to provide exam or ward or practice review of clinically relevant knowledge. … The intended audience is medical, nursing, and nurse practitioner students, but the book could be helpful for physician assistant students as well. As we all are lifetime learners, this book is helpful for practitioners in these areas as well for exam preparation, including recertification.” (Joseph R. Hageman, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2017)
