NUTRITION ALMANAC

NOW IN FULLY REVISED, UPDATED SIXTH EDITION

(HealthNewsDigest.com).. New York, New York – Thirty years ago, Dr. John D. Kirschmann spearheaded a project that would lead to the first health book to address “nutrition in practice.” His Nutrition Almanac was subsequently defined by health food stores as “the bible of nutrition,” a comprehensive reference guide that empowers readers to take charge of their own health by better understanding the relationship of foods to the health of the human body.

McGraw-Hill is pleased to announce the sixth edition release of the Nutrition Almanac, fully revised and updated. Previous editions have sold nearly four million copies. Health-conscious readers as well as doctors and nutritionists who have referenced the book for years will benefit from the latest additions to this reprint.

The book supplies accurate, up-to-date and accessible information on the relationship between foods and health, an expanded section on vitamins and minerals, as well as new findings on good fats and bad fats, phytonutrients, probiotics and more. There is also comprehensive information on essential vitamins and minerals, how they are absorbed and stored, their dosage and toxicity, their deficiency effects and symptoms, and their beneficial effect on common ailments and stressful conditions.

Readers will learn:

· How what you eat can affect more than 100 ailments

· How to use nutrition to fight disease, boost immunity, and slow the effects of aging

· To discover rich sources of vitamins and minerals at your supermarket

· How to increase energy, elevate mood, improve digestion, and control weight.

· What science can tell us about dietary supplements
