Nutrition: A Lifecycle Approach adopts a lifecycle approach to the study of nutrition. It has been divided into two sections: Introduction to Human Nutrition, which deals with basic concepts in nutrition and includes chapters on all major nutrients, their functions, and rich sources in the Indian diet. Lifecycle Nutrition, which discussed the nutritional requirements of different stages in the lifecycle.

Focuses on the different life stages-adults, pregnant women, nursing mothers, preschool and school-age children, adolescents, and the elderly-and their nutritional requirements. Separate chapters on feeding children with special needs; sports nutrition; and the link between nutrition and immunity. Simple and comprehensive, Nutrition is a core text for all undergraduate students of Nutrition and allied courses.
