Written by the foremost nutrition experts in the United States, Nutrition Management of Patients with Inherited Metabolic Disorders supplies the knowledge needed by nutritionists, dietitians, and other healthcare professionals who provide services to patients with inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Many IMDs have been managed by diet, improving neurological and physical outcomes; however, nutrition problems still occur. These problems could be due to the quality of the medical foods, inadequate prescription by healthcare providers, or poor diet adherence by the patient. Nutrition Management of Patients with Inherited Metabolic Disorders examines these issues and helps medical food manufacturers, medical geneticists, nutritionists, dietitians, and other healthcare providers find alternative forms of supplying the nutrients that promote optimal health and nutrition for the patient.
