"Overall, I enjoyed this book. I appreciate that although it offers the resources and references that a textbook does, it serves health professionals more like a reference. The style makes it a fairly easy read. Score: 82 - 3 Stars" --Doody's

Reseña del editor:

Obesity is an increasing problem on a global scale, and strategies for its prevention involve experts from many disciplines including nutritionists, physicians, policy-makers and public health professionals. This book covers the latest advances in obesity development, management and prevention with specific focus on dietary interventions. Part one covers the development of obesity and key drivers for its continuation and increase. Part two looks at the role of specific dietary components in obesity management, and part three discusses the role of behavioural factors such as eating patterns in managing and preventing obesity. Part four focuses on structured dietary interventions for obesity treatment, and part five looks at public interventions and consumer issues.
