Good book for the value Good book for the value, but very heavily used. Tearing on the front and crazy rainbow highlighting inside, of course this will vary with every book. Does its job

The material may seem a little bit dry but the information is useful for a Fundamentals of Nutrition course This book was only a suggested purchase (rental) by the professor but it helped fill in all the blanks that weren’t detailed in the course, yet the students were still expected to know more in depth for quizzes and exams. If this is only a suggested book for you , go ahead and get it. The material may seem a little bit dry but the information is useful for a Fundamentals of Nutrition course.
