DESCRIZIONE

Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Abdominal Obesity focuses on the important role that exercise, dietary changes, and foods play in promoting as well as reducing visceral fat. Nutritionists, dieticians, and healthcare providers seeking to address the abdominal obesity epidemic will use this comprehensive resource as a tool in their long-term goal of preventing chronic diseases, especially heart, vascular, and diabetic diseases.Experts from a broad range of disciplines are involved in dealing with the consequences of excessive abdominal fat: cardiology, diabetes research, studies of lipids, endocrinology and metabolism, nutrition, obesity, and exercise physiology. They have contributed chapters which define a range of dietary approaches to reducing risk and associated chronic diseases; they begin by defining visceral obesity and its major outcomes. They also discuss the importance as well as challenges of dietary approaches to reduce abdominal obesity, as compared to clinical approaches, with major costs and risks.
