Resumen: In the handbook of clinical nutrition and aging, second edition, the editors and contributors (recognized research nutritionists, physicians and other clinician scientist) have thoroughly revised and updated their widely acclaimed first edition with fresh perspectives and the latest scientific and clinical developments in the management of age associated disease. New chapters tackle the behavioral aspects of eating and apply these principles to nutritional therapies. The sections on under nutrition, wasting, and sarcopenia are newly detailed to reflect the latest scientific understanding of these interrelated concepts. The clinical chapters thoroughly explore the interface between nutrition and common medical conditions in older adults. Rounding out this edition is a new section highlighting frontiers in preventive nutrition.
