| Abstract
|

|
Reviews our understanding of how nutrition interacts with the genetic substrate and environmental-exogenous factors, including physical activity or the lack thereof, to result in insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome. This book also reviews the major scientific and clinical aspects of the overlapping areas between nutrition and metabolism.
