Books on nutrition

HeathermRVT · February 2016

Hey everyone.
I'm looking for a book or two on nutrition. The kind of textbook-like book one would find in a college course. It's so much easier for me to make the right changes to my diet when I understand the "why" behind it all. Not interested in online sources - just find them too cumbersome. Thank you in advance

I had an older edition of this book when I took a nutrition class in college. It was a good class: http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Nutrition-Eleanor-Noss-Whitney/dp/128587434X/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1455387329&sr=8-3&keywords=nutrition+textbook

You can save money by getting an older version. Not sure of the changes, but I doubt there have been significant changes since I took the class (in 2007). Here was my edition: http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Nutrition-Ellie-Whitney/dp/0495116696/ref=sr_1_30?ie=UTF8&qid=1455387356&sr=8-30&keywords=nutrition+textbook

Not college level at all but more in depth than you might think: nutrition for dummies

I don't know how deep u want to go but that will take you a good ways.

You might try Lyle M stuff. He is pretty in depth. His books are at his site. Www.bodyrecomposition.Com

When I taught Nutrition, I used this one. It is relatively easy to understand.
