This is the newest and fully revised third edition of the well-received text that is the benchmark book in the field of nutrition and aging. The editors (specialists in geriatric nutrition, medical sociology, and clinical nutrition, respectively) and contributors (a panel of recognized academic nutritionists, geriatricians, clinicians, and other scientists) have added a number of new chapters and thoroughly updated the widely acclaimed second edition. This Third edition provides fresh perspectives and the latest scientific and clinical developments on the interaction of nutrition with age-associated disease and provides practical, evidence-based options to enhance this at-risk population s potential for optimal health and disease prevention. Chapters on a wide range of topics, such as the role of nutrition in physical and cognitive function, as well as an array of clinical conditions (obesity, diabetes, heart failure, cancer, kidney disease, osteoporosis), compliment others on food insecurity, anti-aging and nutritional supplements, making this third edition uniquely different from previous editions.
