Nutrition for Health, Fitness and Sport uses a question-answer approach with the questions arranged in a logical sequence. The answer to one question often leads into the question that follows. Where appropriate, cross-referencing within the text is used to expand the discussion. No deep scientific background is needed for the chemical aspects of nutrition and energy expenditure, as these have been simplified. Instructors who use this book as a course text may add details of biochemistry as they feel necessary.
