Nutrition, Health, And Disease : Man In The Environment

This is my fourth book in a mini-series in the field of nutrition, health, and disease. About half the book touches on how our immediate environment affects us. This is aggravated when disease vectors like biting mosquitoes are common inhabitants of our environment. With the ubiquitous Internet, there is numerous information regarding nutrition from various traditions and various parts of the world. Without guidance, the common man is simply at a loss. This book will be about the nutrition, the environment, and how one influences the other, among other topics in health and disease. The monograph is recommended for use in a nutritional or an epidemiology course. This book was designed as one of the textbooks for a whole course, and it can be employed to create modules in existing courses, or as a supplementary text in nutrition associated with epidemiology. It is meant for a wide readership. This is not only just a book for epidemiology students, but also for the ordinary adult who want to participate fully in the betterment of their own nutritional choices. Topics covered in the book chapters include Zika, the diseases spread by mosquitoes, smoking, and cancer with the correct interpretation of well-collected data, two natural plant foods that could be used as therapeutic medicine, and some practices followed by some restaurants that affect us.
