Woodhead Publishing - The Nutrition Handbook for Food Processors

The Nutrition Handbook for Food Processors addresses a significant gap in food science literature. Since the publication of Arnold Benders classic work in 1978, there has been no single volume providing a comprehensive survey of how processing impacts the nutritional quality of food. This handbook serves as a vital resource for both the food industry and health-conscious consumers. Developed by a distinguished team of editors and international contributors, the book summarizes extensive research in this essential field. The text begins by establishing a foundation through an examination of consumers and nutrition. It includes detailed discussions on consumer eating surveys and reviews of research, providing a deep look at the relationship between food production methods and nutritional outcomes. This volume is a key addition to the Woodhead Publishing Series in Food Science, Technology and Nutrition, offering updated insights into a subject that remains central to modern food technology and public health.
