Advancing Medicine with Food and Nutrients 2nd Edition

by Ingrid Kohlstadt (Editor)

Food and nutrients are the original medicine and the shoulders on which modern medicine stands. But in recent decades, food and medicine have taken divergent paths and the natural healing
properties of food have been diminished in the wake of modern technical progress. With contributions from highly regarded experts who work on the front-lines of disease management, the
bestselling first edition Food and Nutrients in Disease Management (CRC Press 2009) effectively brought food back into the clinical arena, helping physicians put food and nutrients back on
the prescription pad.

Written by doctors for doctors, Advancing Medicine with Food and Nutrients, Second Edition reunites food and medicine. Buttressed with new evidence, leading physicians on the forefront of
disease management apply the latest scientific advances to the clinical practice of medicine. Each chapter offers adjuncts to standard care, fewer side effects, improved risk reduction, or
added quality of life.

Guided by Dr. Kohlstadt, this authoritative reference equips clinicians with the information they need to fully utilize nutritional medicine in their practice. Board-certified in General
Preventive Medicine, Ingrid Kohlstadt, MD, MPH has been elected a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition and a Fellow of the American College of Preventive Medicine (see About the
Author).
