not the best i've seen in text books. information ambiguous and often on the edge of incorrect and contradicted in other chapters. when i have cross referenced material for clarification using the internet, i realized that this book only brushes the surface of the field of nutrition therapy. I suppose this book is a good beginning for individuals looking to expand their knowledge in the subject since this is the only text i've seen and the confusion could be easily clarified by a good instructor. However, for the price, i wouldn't have willingly bought this book.

The only problem I had with this particular order...it did NOT come with an Info Trac 1-Semester Premium Web Site Printed Access Card.
It was still cheaper than going through the school bookstore.
Shipping could of been faster, but it all worked out.
