Handbook of Food-Drug Interactions
edited by Beverly J. McCabe, Eric H. Frankel and Jonathan J. Wolfe
CRC Press
567 pages
Format: pdf
Size: 3,8 Mb

The negative interactions of foods and drugs have become increasingly important as food habits change and large segments of society self-medicate. Surveys show that many Americans have adopted new food consumption patterns, and nearly one-half consume one or more of the thousands of dietary supplements available that are composed of essential nutrients or a wide array of herb- and animal-derived substances. Handbook of Food-Drug Interactions was written by an interdisciplinary group with expertise in nutrition, pharmacy, and medicine and is composed of 17 chapters related to understanding and managing negative food and drug interactions.
The initial chapters provide basic information about pharmacy, pharmacokinetics, nutrition, and metabolism that is essential to understanding the science of food and drug interactions. These chapters are particularly important for creating an understanding of how each discipline relates to negative food and drug interactions and the need for an interdisciplinary approach to the prevention and management of these interactions.
