Description: Nutrition and metabolism shape health across the lifespan and underpin many chronic diseases. This volume reviews assessment methods, pathophysiology, and evidence-based management for conditions such as malnutrition, obesity, diabetes, and inherited metabolic disorders. It balances biochemical mechanisms with practical nutritional interventions, including diet therapy, micronutrient correction, and metabolic monitoring. Public-health perspectives on food security, screening programs, and community nutrition strategies are included. Clinical case studies illustrate multidisciplinary care and long-term follow-up approaches. Intended for clinicians, dietitians, and public-health professionals.
