This text presents basic biochemistry material along with case studies and clinical comments in a problem-solving approach. Thorough discussion of each case provides links between biochemistry and human health and disease. USMLE-type questions at the end of each chapter allow for exam review. An expanded table of contents makes locating information easy. Updated edition includes improved two-colour illustrations.
I have used the 3rd edition of this text since I was an undergraduate in nutrition studies 20 years ago and eagerly await the 6th edition now available. Among all my texts in nutrition, biochemistry, diagnosis of nutrition related problems, and clinical application of biochemistry, I have returned to this text the most often. It has reliably given the most applicable, actionable information for my own work in nutrition care practice today. It has also been a fast reference for brushing up on obscure metabolic mysteries, useful for any practicing clinician.
