PEARSON EDUCATION Science of Nutrition, plus MasteringNutrition with Pearson eText

This package includes a physical copy of Science Nutrition, 3e by Janice Thompson, Melinda Manore and Linda Vaughan as well as access to the eText and MasteringNutrition. The Science of Nutrition, Third Edition is uniquely organized using an applied approach, which organizes vitamins and minerals based on their functions and effects on the body. This applied approach is most evident in the functional organization of the micronutrient (vitamin and mineral) chapters. Rather than requiring you to memorize all the vitamins and minerals and their characteristics, the authors present them based on their functions (like fluid and electrolyte balance, antioxidant function, bone health, energy metabolism, and blood and immunity health), so that you can understand their effects on the body. The Third Edition of the book adds New Focus Figure spreads that concentrate on the toughest topics to learn and understand. MyLab and Mastering from Pearson improve results for students and educators. Used by over ten million students, they effectively engage learners at every stage. With proven success, Mastering has helped students make strides in learning for over 10 years. MasteringNutrition has immersive content and tools that are so engaging that one educator. With MasteringNutrition, students gain knowledge that they will use throughout their lives, and universities gain a partner deeply committed to helping students and educators achieve their goals.
