Description
Diabetes occurs at such an alarming rate that it can be described as a global epidemic. Following its predecessor, Nutrition and Diabetes: Pathophysiology and Management, Second Edition, is a comprehensive resource that describes various factors that drive the accumulation of excess body weight and fat resulting in obesity. The book discusses the metabolic aberrations found in obesity and how they lead to the association of obesity with diabetes. This new edition highlights the role played by diet and the interrelationships in the metabolism of key nutrients in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes which provides the scientific basis for treatment and management approaches.
Reviews
This is a wonderful introduction for providers in any discipline managing injury at the time of presentation in the emergency department. Concise, well-written presentations make this an excellent bedside reference. After review of the opening chapters, readers can progress to the organ system of interest. For those less familiar with injury, comments on procedural sedation and commonly missed traumatic problems are an important aid.’ David J. Dries, Doody’s Book Review Service
