Great book
The book was great other than it had black paint on it. Was able to clean it off and it look great.

Content great, seller not
I initially rented the previous edition of this book for my undergrad course and amongst all the textbooks I had this was one of my top three favorites to keep. Anyway, after renting the other edition I chose to send it back and not purchase it after the semester ended because this next edition was coming out soon and it didnât disappoint. Iâve had this book on my wishlist for 9 months and finally purchased it the first week of January 2023. That very next week the price went down considerably so I contacted the seller to see if I could get a price match refund considering this new update.Right?Wrong!They were useless and only gave me a generic response that had nothing to do with the question. Also the shipping wasnât very up to date so if you like to track your stuff be advised.All in all, the condition of this hardcover was great and the pages are pristine. Great for nutrition and fitness professionals alike but this experience with said seller was not stellar.

No text-to-speech
The sample of this text does do the text to speech feature in the kindle app, but when you purchase/rent the actual textbook it does not do this. I was highly disappointed the authors did not decide to have this as an option. I have never had this come up with all of my textbooks on the kindle app. It hurts those of us who are auditory learners to not have this feature.

Blank pages!!
Imagine buying a Kindle version of a textbook and you’re working on your assignments for the week and… there are multiple blank pages! So far I have found three in the first 50 pages of the book. This makes my reading assignments quite difficult to accomplish since those pages are definitely not meant to be blank.

Damaged book
This rental textbook was delivered with a large cut in the spine. Because of this the book is very flimsy and feels like the pages are coming apart from the spine.

Factual Fallacies
I don’t know much, but when they said”insufficient dietary energy can cause fatty acids to be converted to ketone bodies, which are necessary to maintain function of certain tissues, including the brain and red blood cells.”I know that’s totally wrong bc red blood cells don’t even have mitochondria and rely exclusively an anaerobic glycolysis!I wonder what else I read was totally wrong. Sadly, a waste of time.

This is super complicated for someone who doesnât have deep chemistry formulas and names for such complicated âbalanceâ (to put it nicely) in our bodies.If you are self taught but w/o the medical/chemistry knowledge do yourself a favour and do NOT buy this⦠it will collect dust (like mine does). Iâd need a second university degree just to comprehendâ¦

I’ve had for nearly 2 months. i can honestly say, as a PT, this book is a must for anyone looking to refresh or even advance their knowledge. Please dont be put off by the price tag – knowledge will go far.
