Measuring dietary quality can be problematic and includes investigating food types, the number or size of portions or their frequency. Diet quality may also be related to the type of food being ingested, snacking and other eating habits. Manufactured beverages and fast food may also be included as well as microbiological quality and attempts to improve single food items such as meats or vegetables. In this book, Diet Quality: An Evidence-Based Approach, Volume 1 all of the major facets of diet quality in relation to health outcomes are covered. This important new text includes methods for determining diet quality while adopting a holistic approach to impart information on the major areas of concern or knowledge. Chapters link in measurable indices of health such as obesity, pregnancy outcomes, cancer and cancer outcomes, and mortality. This book represents a diverse set of subject matters and seeks to fill a gap in the literature at a time when there is an increasing awareness that well being is associated with the qualitative nature of diets.  Contributors are authors of international and national standing and emerging fields of science are incorporated. Diet Quality: An Evidence-Based Approach, Volume 1 is a useful new text designed for nutritionists, dietitians, clinicians, epidemiologist, policy makers and health care professionals of various disciplines. 410 0$aNutrition and Health,$x2628-1961 606 $aNutrition 606 $aPrimary care (Medicine) 606 $aFood science 606 $aMedical sciences 606 $aMedicine, Preventive 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aNutrition 606 $aPrimary Care Medicine 606 $aFood Science 606 $aHealth Sciences 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention 615 0$aNutrition. 615 0$aPrimary care (Medicine) 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aMedical sciences. 615 0$aMedicine, Preventive. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 14$aNutrition. 615 24$aPrimary Care Medicine. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aHealth Sciences. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 676 $a613.2 701 $aPreedy$b Victor R$0858423 701 $aHunter$b Lan-Anh$01750223 701 $aPatel$b Vinood B$0863597 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437995303321 996 $aDiet quality$94184805 997 $aUNINA
