Handbook of Applied Biochemistry, Nutrition and Dietetics, 5th Edition is an exam-oriented biochemistry text for nursing, pharmacy and allied health science students, written to align with the Revised INC Syllabus for BSc Nursing (2021) while also covering the earlier syllabus. It presents the subject in a simplified, sequential way, so that structures, pathways and clinical correlations build on one another. The book is divided into 22 chapters covering the cell, enzymes, the chemistry and metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids and proteins, and lipids, integration of metabolism, haemoglobin metabolism, acid-base balance, biological oxidation, hormones, immunochemistry, free radicals and antioxidants, and applied nutrition and dietetics, mapped to the syllabus recommended by the relevant councils and associations of India. Each chapter opens with an objective and introduction and ends with a summary and self-assessment questions that include short-answer questions, case studies and multiple choice questions. Diagrams, flowcharts and tables support each topic, and a reference list of laboratory tests with normal ranges and their clinical use is provided. Who This Book Is For: BSc Nursing students: for the applied biochemistry, nutrition and dietetics course, as a single simplified, exam-focused reference. Allied health and pharmacy students: for the biochemistry and nutrition components of allied health science and pharmacy programmes that follow the same syllabus framework. Why This Book Helps: Makes metabolism learnable: presents pathways in a logical sequence with flowcharts so students can follow and recall each step. Builds exam readiness into every chapter: objectives up front and short-answer, case-study and MCQ self-assessment at the end. Links chemistry to the ward: clinical correlations such as jaundice, thalassaemia, acid-base disorders and cardiovascular risk connect biochemistry to patient care. Speeds lab interpretation: a consolidated list of laboratory tests with normal ranges and clinical use supports practicals and clinical postings. Covers nutrition alongside biochemistry: applied nutrition and dietetics content sits with the biochemistry it depends on. Key Features: 22 chapters covering cell biology, enzymes, carbohydrate, amino acid, protein and lipid chemistry and metabolism, hormones, immunochemistry and free radicals. Every chapter begins with an objective and introduction and ends with a summary plus short-answer questions, case studies and MCQs. Lucid diagrams, flowcharts and comparison tables throughout to aid understanding and recall. Reference list of laboratory tests with normal ranges and their clinical use. Aligned to the Revised INC Syllabus for BSc Nursing 2021 while also covering the earlier syllabus.
