Summary:
"Welcome to this textbook, Life Cycle Nutrition for Public Health Professionals. It was written as the result of interactions with other public health nutrition academicians, practitioners, and graduate students that indicated the need for such a text, developed from a public health and community-based focus rather than a clinical nutrition perspective. This text links to the expressed Public Health 3.0 strategy that supports the need for public health leaders to develop and embrace community-wide approaches to assuring conditions in which all people can be healthy. Thus, the text considers nutrition through the entire human life course as viewed through a population health lens. The text is designed for public health students who will benefit from enhanced knowledge of nutrition principles and nutrition students who will benefit from enhanced knowledge of public health principles, as well as public health nutrition practitioners. A distinguished group of authors have collaborated to develop the contents"--
