- I saved a bundle...
I saved a bundle by buying an earlier edition for my online nutrition class. This book was probably 10 dollars, where as the newer edition was closer to 100.

Very Snazzy.

Rating:

- Needed more information
The service itself was great but with the minimal info that I was given, I thought I was buying the correct item when I was actually buying the older version of the book. A more detailed discription of the product would clear that up.

Rating:

- Great text for nutrition majors
Most recent information for nutrition majors.

Rating:

- OK, if you don't mind mindless detail
This text is very detailed, which is good, but is missing some important information, which is bad. If you want simple facts, the expense of this book is too much for the benifit you will get from it. If you want details, especially ones that are easy to find, this is not the book for you. It also does not do a good job of objectivity as the quthors political views are very apparent in the text.

- Perspectives in Nutrition Review
I have found this book to be an asset for anyone looking to choose healthy eating as a gateway to a healthier lifestyle. As a nutrition major I have learned the essentials of healthy eating not only for people of my age, but for all ages. From pregnancy to the elderly, this book is designed to help everyone.
