This text is an especially timely new text as the number of studies focusing on the impact of the Mediterranean diet on disease prevention increases every year.

In-depth chapters provide an overview of preclinical and clinical studies on Mediterranean dietary patterns, food components and lifestyle and their impact on health and disease. Large-scale “omic” approaches are highlighted to educate the reader about the molecular mechanisms through which specific components of the Mediterranean diet improves health and the opportunities and challenges for translating into practice the food recommendations of the Mediterranean pyramid. The volume concludes with information about the nutritional adequacy of Mediterranean foods and provides selected recipes. Mediterranean Diet: Impact on Health and Disease will be of great interest to students, clinicians, and scientists engaged in promoting health through nutrition and physical activity.

Nutrición Comunitaria

La gran oferta alimentaria existente en las sociedades desarrolladas no induce, necesariamente, un modelo nutricional adecuado a la mejora del nivel de salud de la población. En nuestro medio, la dieta diaria se configura más en base a aspectos lúdicos, gastronómicos, de imagen social y de escasa disponibilidad de tiempo que pensando en la trascendencia vital de su estructura. La Nutrición Comunitaria es la parte de la Nutrición Aplicada que se ocupa de aspectos vinculados a la alimentación y a la salud pública desde una perspectiva de colaboración y consenso con los grupos sociales organizados, en un hábitat determinado y con un objetivo último de promoción de la salud. En este libro, ahora en versión digital, destacados autores revisan los principales temas relacionados con esta disciplina de creciente interés y candente actualidad.
