The best reference I can recommend for medical nutrition therapy. It includes over 350 diseases/disorders/conditions with background information, nutrition care and recommendations, and medications/herbal remedies and side-effects. Each section has very nice diagrams, bullet points, and tables for easy reading. Every RD needs this on their shelf, especially if they see a wide variety of patients. Updated with the 2010 DRIs.

My go-to book for researching medical nutrition therapy for specific diseases, hypermetabolic states, or malnourished states. Very comprehensive. A MUST HAVE for all those in the clinical dietetics settings.
