Each chapter emphasizes the essential information that RDNs need to know, such as the etiologies of specific GI disorders, associated nutrition-related problems, the risks and benefits of medical and nutrition interventions, and emerging areas of research. Numerous illustrations, algorithms, and tables are provided to facilitate the reader's understanding of the complexities of GI nutrition."--Back cover.
