Where science meets storytelling.
Written and illustrated in the engaging, journalistic style of Scientific American, Nutrition for a Changing World connects students to the science of nutrition through real stories, real people, and real discoveries. Each chapter opens with a compelling narrative that brings the latest nutrition research to life, while stunning visuals and dynamic infographics help students see-and understand-how nutrition impacts health and well-being.

In Achieve, Nutrition for a Changing World continues to lead the way with AnalyzeMyDiet, diet tracker and with personalized, auto-graded assignments. New interactive tutorials, video-based assessments, and instant feedback turn learning into an active, reflective experience-saving instructors time while deepening student understanding.
