...tai oikeastaan toisin päin - aineistoksi karppi"teorioiden" rakentamiseen ja jalostamiseen.


Hyvin mielenkiintoisia - tai enemmänkin vaikka eivät olekaan dieettikijoja - tai juuri siksi:
(eivät ole ristiriidassa karppauksen kanssa - päinvastoin - ja tukevasti)

Rethinking Homeostasis
Allostatic Regulation in Physiology and Pathophysiology
Jay Schulkin

"Homeostasis, a key concept in biology, refers to the tendency toward stability in the various bodily states that make up the internal environment. Examples include temperature regulation and oxygen consumption. The body's needs, however, do not remain constant. When an organism is under stress, the central nervous system works with the endocrine system to use resources to maintain the overall viability of the organism. The process accelerates the various systems' defenses of bodily viability, but can violate short-term homeostasis. This allostatic regulation highlights our ability to anticipate, adapt to, and cope with impending future events.

In Rethinking Homeostasis, Jay Schulkin defines and explores many aspects of allostasis, including the wear and tear on tissues and accelerated pathophysiology caused by allostatic overload. Focusing on the concept of motivation and its relationship to the central nervous system function and specific hormonal systems, he applies a neuroendocrine perspective to central motive states such as cravings for water, sodium, food, sex, and drugs. He examines in detail the bodily consequences of the behavioral and neuroendocrine regulation of fear and adversity, the endocrine regulation of normal and preterm birth, and the effects of drug addiction on the body. Schulkin's presentation of allostasis lays the foundation for further study.

Jay Schulkin is Research Professor of Physiology and Biophysics at Georgetown University School of Medicine."

Kirja vaikuttaa hyvinhyvin mielenkiintoiselta noin pikaluennalla ylimalkaisesti plärättynä. Melkein kuin hyvä seikkailudekkari woodoineen. Mut siis asiaa.

Biochemical, Physiological & Molecular Aspects of Human Nutrition, 2nd Edition
By Martha H. Stipanuk, PhD

"This book presents advanced nutrition in a comprehensive, easy-to-understand format ideal for graduate students in nutritional programs, organic chemistry, physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology. It focuses on he biology of human nutrition at the molecular, cellular, tissue, and whole-body levels. Biochemical, Physiological, & Molecular Aspects of Human Nutrition is full of student-friendly features – chapter outlines; common abbreviations; critical thinking exercises; detailed illustrations; and feature boxes spotlighting key nutritional data, insights, and clinical correlations. In addition, chapters are organized logically into seven units, reflecting the traditional nutrient class divisions."

Erittäin kattava ja selkeä perusteellinen "perusteos" tuonne jonnekin syvälle saakka.
2. Painosta, tätä uutta en ole vielä nähnyt mutta 1. painos on hyvä ja varmasti kakkoseen on otettu joissakin asioissa uudemman tiedon mukaisia lisiä ja korjauksia.
