Vitamins in Animal and Human Nutrition

The second edition of Vitamins in Animal and Human Nutrition, contains concise, up–to–date information on vitamin nutrition for both animals and humans. This new edition has been extensively updated with many additional references. Over 40% of the references are new, published since the first edition in 1989. A new chapter devoted to carnitine has been added.
A unique feature is the description of the practical implications of vitamin deficiencies, excesses, and the conditions that might occur with various animal species and humans. A large number of photographs illustrate vitamin deficiencies in farm livestock, laboratory animals and humans. Unlike other textbooks, this book places strong emphasis on vitamin supplementation in each chapter, while devoting the entire last chapter to vitamin supplementation.
