Diététique en pratique médicale courante

La diététique est aujourd'hui, plus que jamais, une branche majeure de la thérapeutique. Confortée par les avancées physiopathologiques, les enquêtes épidémiologiques et les études d'intervention randomisées, la diététique va de pair avec l'arme pharmacologique dont elle en consolide les actions et permet parfois même d'en différer la mise en oeuvre. La diététique a une place privilégiée en prévention primaire, participe du traitement de nombreuses maladies, et en est parfois le traitement exclusif comme dans certaines maladies innées du métabolisme ou de la maladie coeliaque. Cependant, le recours à la diététique est souvent contraint par la lenteur et la difficulté de sa prescription qui fait appel à des connaissances spécifiques. Ce manuel de diététique a pour objectif de mettre à la portée des médecins de tous horizons et des diététicien(ne)s l'argumentaire et les clefs permettant l'élaboration d'une intervention diététique efficace et pertinente. Des fiches diététiques pour les prescripteurs facilitent l'applicabilité du régime décrit dans chaque situation, qu'il s'agisse de l'équilibre alimentaire, des maladies métaboliques, digestives, cardio-vasculaires, rénales, du cancer ou des intolérances alimentaires et des allergies. Les 55 fiches diététiques de l'ouvrage peuvent être téléchargées et imprimées sur le minisite www.em-consulte.com.
