Vitamins in Human Health and Disease - Tapa blanda

This work covers all the vitamins important in human health. Each vitamin is given individual consideration. Many aspects about each vitamin, such as the history, chemistry, sources, physiology, and biochemistry are discussed. Further chapters cover broader topics such as the therapeutic potential of vitamins and the interaction between vitamins and drugs. By bringing together information about these vitamins into one volume, the authors have created a reference source which provides a lot of detail. Vitamins are an integral part of undergraduate programmes in food and nutrition, as well as those of students of medicine and related health professions, such as dieticians, nurses and pharmacists. This book provides a supplementary text for all of these groups.
