ABOUT THE BOOK

Diabetes occurs at such an alarming rate that it can be described as a global epidemic. Following its predecessor, Nutrition and Diabetes: Path o physiology and Management, Second Edition, is a comprehensive resource that describes various factors that drive the accumulation of excess body weight and fat resulting in obesity. The book discusses the metabolic aberrations found in obesity and how they lead to the association of obesity with diabetes. This new edition highlights the role played by diet and the interrelationships in the metabolism of key nutrients in the path o genesis of obesity and diabetes which provides the scientific basis for treatment and management approaches.

Features

• Highlights the role of nutrition in the path o genesis of obesity and diabetes
• Organized logically into two easy-to-use sections – Path o physiology and Management of Obesity and Path o physiology and Treatment of Diabetes
• Features emerging therapeutic approaches for management of obesity and diabetes
• Discusses experience in the management of obesity and diabetes in developing countries
• Presents challenges in insulin therapy and provides guidelines to overcome them

The first section of the book retains key topics from the previous edition and contains new chapters including genetic determinants of nutrient processing; fat distribution and diabetes mellitus; combined effect of diet and physical activity in the management of obesity; pharmacologic treatment of obesity; and the role of gut micro biota in the path o genesis and treatment of obesity. The second section features updated versions of most of the other chapters in the first edition comprising a modified chapter on oxidative stress and the effects of dietary supplements on glycemic control in Type 2 diabetes. In addition, new chapters are added in this section and include the contribution of iron and transition metal micro nutrients to diabetes; role of micro biota in the path o genesis and treatment of diabetes; primary prevention of Type 2 diabetes; and the path o physiology and management of Type 1 diabetes.
