Beschreibungen

<i>Multicultural Handbook of Food, Nutrition and Dietetics</i> is the must have practical resource for dietitians, nutritionists and students working with both well settled but also recently migrated ethnic groups.<br />Written by a team of authors drawn from the British Dietetic Association's Specialist Multicultural Nutrition Group the book provides in-depth information to equip the reader in the provision of nutrition advice to minority groups. Spanning a broad range of cultural groups the book seeks to consider religious and cultural requirements in relation to traditional diets; research on migration studies and chronic disease states; and nutrition and dietetic treatment in relation to key chronic diseases.<br />

<p>“This is a fascinating book and a great resource for U.K. nutrition professionals. Its usefulness may be limited in the U.S., but it is helpful as an additional resource on food and culture.”  (<i>Doody’s</i>, 10 August 2012)</p>
Aruna Thaker is a retired HPC registered Consultant Dietitian. <p> Arlene Barton is an HPC registered Dietitian and Lecturer in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics at Nottingham University.</p>
Chronic illness such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and stroke have been shown to increase dramatically in minority population groups, despite traditional native diets often being healthy and balanced. <p> Lifestyle changes as a result of migration play a large part in this phenomenon and when faced with the problem, many health professionals admit that they have limited knowledge of the cultural requirements of such patients and clients.</p> <p> <i>Multicultural Handbook of Food, Nutrition and Dietetics</i> is therefore an essential resource which will equip both the qualified and student dietitian with the tools they need to ensure that when prescribing dietary treatment religious and cultural needs along with habitual food choices of the individual are fully understood and taken into account.</p> <p> Written by a team of expert dietitians this book is a valuable source of reference for all nutritionists, dietitians, related health professionals and students studying in these areas. It will be an excellent addition to all libraries in universities and research establishments where these subjects are studied and taught.</p>
