Benders’ dictionary of nutrition
and food technology

‘This valuable book continues to fulfil the purpose of explaining the
technical terms in nutrition and food processing.’
Chemistry and Industry

‘A dictionary that fills a need and fills it well.’
Institute of Meat Bulletin

‘The book covers all aspects of food and nutrition science…I use the
dictionary on an almost daily basis.’
British Nutrition Foundation Nutrition Bulletin

The study of food and nutrition covers many disciplines, ranging from
agriculture, biology, physics and chemistry to food technology, nutrition
and medicine. As research on the links between food and health continues
to expand, it is more important than ever that specialists in such areas
as food processing and nutrition be familiar with the often unfamiliar
terminology that differing disciplines use.

This classic book meets that need. It provides succinct, authoritative
definitions of over 6100 terms in nutrition and food technology (an
increase of 20% from the previous edition). The book also includes nutrient
composition data for 340 foods and an appendix with nutrient intake and
other useful data.

David Bender is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Biochemistry of
University College London. The late Arnold Bender was Emeritus Professor
of Nutrition in the University of London.

Food, diet and obesity
(ISBN-13: 978-1-85573-958-1; ISBN-10: 1-85573-958-5)
Obesity is a global epidemic, with large numbers of adults and
children overweight or obese in many developed and developing
countries. As a result, there is an unprecedented level of interest
and research in the complex interactions between our genetic
susceptibility, diet and lifestyle in determining individual risk of
obesity. With its distinguished editor and international team of
contributors, this collection sums up the key themes in weight
control research, focusing on their implications and applications
for food product development and consumers.

Improving the fat content of foods
(ISBN-13: 978-1-85573-965-9; ISBN-10: 1-85573-965-8)
Dietary fats have long been recognised as having a major impact
on health, negative in the case of consumers’ excessive intake of
saturated fatty acids, positive in the case of increasing consumers’
intake of long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).
However, progress in ensuring that consumers achieve a
nutritionally optimal fat intake has been slow. This important
collection reviews the range of steps needed to improve the fat
content of foods whilst maintaining sensory quality.
