The authors consistently seek to make the content relevant to learners and highlight health conditions, medications, food products, and supplements students or members of their families may be using. With a friendly writing style, the authors act as the students’ personal guide to dispelling common misconceptions and gaining a solid foundation to make informed nutrition choices. For everyday diet planning, students will learn about the 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, MyPlate, and Healthy People 2020.
