Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Dietetics & Nutrition in Healthcare presents a comprehensive and practice-oriented exploration of nutrition science as it applies to health promotion, disease prevention, and clinical care. The book is thoughtfully structured to guide readers from fundamental concepts of dietetics and nutrition to advanced applications in clinical and community settings. Beginning with an introduction to nutrition in healthcare, it builds a strong foundation through detailed discussions on sugars, nuts, oilseeds, bioactive compounds, and functional food components. Special emphasis is placed on product design in nutrition, including traditional formulations such as chyawanprash, highlighting the integration of scientific knowledge with cultural and practical relevance.The book further examines the composition, nutritive value, and quality aspects of commonly consumed foods such as milk and milk products, eggs, poultry, meat, and fish, along with changes that occur during processing and cooking. These chapters bridge basic food science with real-world dietary decision-making. The later sections introduce clinical nutrition and dietetics, supported by case studies that illustrate nutrition assessment, planning, and intervention across different health conditions and lifestyles.A distinctive feature of this book is its strong focus on experiential and applied learning. Practical experiments-including body fat measurement, metabolic rate assessment, glycemic index evaluation, lactate threshold testing, and VO2 max estimation-equip learners with essential assessment skills used in modern nutrition practice. Exercises on balanced meal planning, product formulation, and supplement design, along with practice case studies on obesity and sedentary lifestyles, encourage critical thinking and personalized nutrition planning.Written with the intent to simplify complex concepts without compromising scientific rigor, this book serves as a valuable resource for students, educators, and healthcare professionals. By blending theory, practice, and culturally relevant examples, Dietetics & Nutrition in Healthcare aims not only to inform but also to inspire mindful, evidence-based, and individualized approaches to nutrition in academic study, clinical practice, and everyday life.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. ASTROBOTANY: Plants Beyond Earth - Volume 1Author, Surendra Ramesh Sawardekar & Dr. Urmila SarkarASTROBOTANY: Plants Beyond Earth - Volume 1 is a scientific exploration of how plants can sustain human life beyond Earth through space agriculture, bio-regenerative systems and extraterrestrial ecology. The book introduces readers to the emerging interdisciplinary field of astrobotany, which integrates botany, space biology, environmental science and aerospace technology to address one of humanity's greatest future challenges: survival in space.Beginning with the foundations of astrobotany, the book explains the importance of plants in long-duration missions to the Moon, Mars and deep-space habitats. It highlights how plants contribute not only to food production, oxygen generation and water recycling, but also to psychological well-being in confined space environments.The text presents a detailed historical overview of space plant research, tracing developments from early rocket experiments and Soviet biosatellites to advanced studies aboard the International Space Station. It discusses major contributions from organizations such as NASA, ISRO and the European Space Agency in advancing space agriculture and controlled ecological systems.A major focus of the book is the effect of microgravity on plant structure and physiology. The authors explain how the absence of gravity alters root and shoot orientation, cellular organization, hormone distribution and photosynthesis. Through scientifically detailed yet accessible explanations, the book examines plant adaptations involving phototropism, hydrotropism, stress-response genes and antioxidant mechanisms that enable survival in extraterrestrial environments.The book further explores technological innovations such as hydroponics, aeroponics, LED-based growth systems, automated growth chambers and AI-assisted farming systems designed for sustainable crop production in space. Experimental studies conducted aboard the International Space Station are discussed in depth, including successful cultivation of lettuce, wheat, radish, zinnia and Arabidopsis thaliana. These experiments demonstrate the feasibility of self-sustaining plant systems for future planetary colonization.Combining scientific rigor with futuristic vision, ASTROBOTANY: Plants Beyond Earth - Volume 1 serves as an essential resource for students, researchers, educators and science enthusiasts interested in astrobiology, space agriculture and the future of human survival beyond Earth.
