The goal here is to provide clinicians a single-volume reference on the role of diet and nutrition in treating liver disease, but the approach requires a little different understanding of the causative elements that precipitate the disease as well as the nutritional factors and regimens that reverse the deteriorating hepatic function, so the focus is not as narrow as some might expect. Medical researchers and practitioners look at overviews, general nutritional support, and nonspecific conditions; steatosis and metabolic liver disease; cancer, viral, and immune diseases; and the young and aging liver, end-stage, and transplantation. Among the topics are the regulation of hepatic metabolism by eneral delivery of nutrients, lipid metabolism and control in the non-alcoholic fatty liver,vitamins in hepato-cellular carcinoma, and nutritional considerations in pediatric liver transplanation.
