More Description

Exceptionally well organized, Metabolic and Therapeutic Aspects of Amino Acids in Clinical Nutrition, Second Edition presents current information on amino acid metabolism in various health and nutritional states. Internationally regarded experts re-evaluate data and previously accepted hypotheses in light of information uncovered through genomics and proteomics. This work covers amino acid uptake routes, physiology, and metabolism, and includes a critical section on amino acid supply in disease, which provides formulations for specific health challenges. This volume continues to be a standard resource for researchers in this field, as well as clinicians governing the amino acid intake of patients.
