Focuses on the complex multi-functional relationship between nutrition and cancer development. This book explores the basic elements of biology and pathobiology of gene-nutrient interactions, focusing on mechanisms and biomarkers, and examines numerous examples in detail. It is suitable for clinicians who manage cancer patients.
