    Dans un contexte où l’alimentation constitue un levier majeur de prévention tout en suscitant des préoccupations sanitaires croissantes, cet ouvrage articule les aspects nutrition, sécurité sanitaire et santé environnementale dans une approche de santé globale. Il donne aux professionnels de santé des repères fiables pour délivrer des messages proportionnés et non anxiogènes.L’offre alimentaire évolue, avec environ 46 % des apports caloriques issus des produits « ultra-transformés » pour les enfants et adolescents et 36 % pour les adultes. Les conseils nutritionnels doivent s’adapter à ces nouvelles pratiques, en les orientant vers une meilleure protection de la santé et de l’environnement. Les auteurs donnent ainsi les clés pour répondre aux attentes des patients et à leurs questions, par groupes d’aliments, tranches d’âges et situations de vie : activité physique, grossesse, jeûnes, rythmes biologiques, interactions avec les médicaments, etc.Une partie consacrée aux risques alimentaires complète l’analyse. Elle propose d’abord des repères pour comprendre, interpréter et hiérarchiser les risques, puis aborde trois thématiques majeures : les bactéries d’origine alimentaire, toujours d’actualité, les mycotoxines, encore insuffisamment connues, et les pesticides, au cœur des préoccupations actuelles.Solidement référencé, l’ouvrage intègre les données scientifiques les plus récentes ; plus de 50 tableaux fournissent des informations claires et pratiques.POINTS CLÉSApproche intégrée nutrition, risques alimentaires et santé environnementaleRepè... actualisés pour comprendre et hiérarchiser les risques en pratique cliniqueOutils concrets pour accompagner les patients dans leurs choix alimentairesLaurent Chevallier est médecin nutritionniste, président de l’association Objectif nutrition santé, et ancien médecin attaché au CHU de Montpellier.Ragnar Weissmann est docteur (PhD) en phytopathologie, spécialisé en microbiologie et santé environnementale et directeur scientifique, Objectif Santé Environnement (OSE)
