Description: This diet manual was developed for use as a reference for the principles, adequacy, and foods of each diet included. It will be useful as a text for medical and nutritional interns, student nurses, and other individuals involved with the nutritional care of patients. The diet manual includes the general hospital diet, modifications of the general diet, and all therapeutic diets commonly used at the University of Iowa Hospitals and the Veterans Administration Hospital in Iowa City. The adequacy of the suggested menu is based on the 1968 revision of the Recommended Daily Dietary Allowances prepared by the Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research Council. - Preface.
