Summary "Dietetics for Nurses" by Fairfax T. Proudfit is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This text serves as a comprehensive guide aimed at training nurses in the principles of dietetics, particularly focusing on the nutritional needs of patients in both health and disease. As modern healthcare shifts towards preventive measures, this work emphasizes the critical role of nutrition in maintaining health and promoting recovery. The beginning of the book introduces the foundational concepts of dietetics, highlighting the importance of understanding food's effects on the human body. Proudfit discusses the distinction between health and disease and emphasizes that nurses must have a solid understanding of normal nutrition to effectively care for patients experiencing health issues. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for exploring various foodstuffs, their biochemical composition, and their functional roles in human health, while establishing a clear connection between diet, physiology, and nursing practice.
