Produktbeschreibung

This critically acclaimed resource provides a broad overview of those chemicals in food with the potential to produce adverse health effects.

It addresses the adverse effects of nutrient excesses, the impact of contaminants on nutrient utilization, and the response of the body's biologic defense mechanisms. It includes discussions on the risk determination process, food safety regulation, and the current status of the regulatory processes.
