Great book which can ease your study

Good , need to include rda value for energy value be included in table

Yes, it is a genuine product, updated version of 161 pages

Even though it's a paperback edition, the price of the book seems to be very high, and not only that, but the new edition hasn't changed anything from the book from 10 years ago. I feel like this book could have been updated a bit by adding more modern knowledge and information.

The book came with a perfect packaging. It came with double layered packaging one with cardboard and another with the amazon general packet. I'll be using this book for nutritive value calculation and this book covers more or less everything. The only thing that irked me was the exclusive distributed title sticker put on the original price tag. Overall the book is very useful

Content ok but print quality low

The book is an excellent handbook wherein you get nutrition values of practically all the foods that we consume. I would recommend to the ICMR National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) to publish the information about cooked foods also such as cooked rice, dal, chapati or fried items such as samosa, kachori, bhujia, vada also as 1) None of the grains and pulses are consumed raw (rice, wheat, daals) 2) The minimum cooking on all vegetables is boiling (potato, sweet potato) sauteing (onion, tomato) 3) Many snacks (samosa, kachori, vada, bonda, etc) are deep fried in oil or ghee (as oil and ghee is not consumed raw). The approx. values for these cooked foods will be accepted only when validated by NIN, an institute of national eminence and integrity.
