The last decade has witnessed continuous development in the field of public health nutrition – especially in terms of a shift from ‘what’ to “how”.
The two volumes of this book explore the intersection of nutrition and public health to analyze the impact of dietary choices on communities and individuals. Volume I details the evidence-based strategies, global health challenges, and nutrition-sensitive issues to cover the important aspects of nutrition, which are essential for developing an understanding of public health. Volume II covers other allied concepts such as food-agriculture, food systems, dietary diversity, food fortification, water-sanitation, and conditional and non-conditional cash.
The subject matter of this book includes:
Nutrition epidemiology for developing countries
Dual nutrition burden in women
Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM)
Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia in young children
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)
Print edition not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan or Bhutan)
