"Everything a third year medical student needs to know about nutrition!"
(At least to get started).
Prepared for the students of SUNY-Health Science Center at Brooklyn.
These NUTRITION NOTES were prepared at the request of Dr. Laurence Finberg, formerly Chairman and Professor of Pediatrics of the Children's Medical Center of SUNY-Health Science Center of Brooklyn. "I think," he said, "you should tell medical students what they need to know about the scientific basis of pediatric nutrition."
The NOTES provide a beginning for understanding -- a foundation for learning.
They will help you understand how a problem unfolds and what language should be used to describe the problem, how to develop a preliminary plan of action and obtain more information. Do you need more? Yes, you do. There is an abundant literature in clinical nutrition that is available in the texts cited, other books, and in readily available journals to be found in libraries, and more recently, on the Internet.
