Endocrine Aspects of Food and Nutrition
This comprehensive reference aims to highlight the links between food intake, nutritional status and endocrine regulation.
On one hand hormones and neuromediators regulate energy metabolism, body composition (adipose tissue, muscle and bone) and function. On the other side nutrients and bioactive molecules may influence endocrine function. Finally nutritional status is affected by endocrine diseases and can modify the evolution of these diseases.
This volume is written by leading experts in the field and it is intended for clinicians and residents, including specialists in endocrinology, internal medicine, and nutrition. It is published as part of the SpringerReference program, which offers access to "living" editions constantly updated through a dynamic peer-review publishing process.
