Description
ED Tech Press Food Science And Nutrition (Hb 2022) by Leigh Fisher
Food Science is a highly inter-disciplinary applied science. It incorporates concepts from many different fields including microbiology, chemical engineering, and biochemistry. Nutrition science investigates the metabolic and physio-logical responses of the body to diet. With advances in the field of molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics, the study of nutrition is increasingly concerned with metabolism and metabolic pathways: the sequences of biochemical steps through which substances in living things change from one form to another. Food Science and Nutrition is a comprehensive textbook that is specially designed to meet the needs of students of hospitality studies, hotel management, and catering technology.
