Editorial Reviews

An innovative and much anticipated book that for the first time presents a range of nutritional therapy practitioner case studies to demonstrate a person-centred, personalised approach that informed their nutrition interventions and the progress and outcomes for each of their clients. Each case is presented from the perspective of the practitioner and should provide a rich resource for nutrition students and professionals. As the field of personalised nutrition advances we would expect to see more books of this kind that continues to demonstrate application in clinical practice.
