Nutrition Physiology and Metabolism in Spaceflight and Analog Studies

This book provides an overview of microgravity-induced changes in human metabolism, muscle, bone and the cardio-vascular system, and discusses in detail the nutrient uptake required during spaceflight to counteract these adaptive mechanisms and ensure an improved physical constitution upon returning to Earth.

Aceasta carte ofera o imagine de ansamblu asupra modificarilor induse de microgravitate in metabolismul uman, muschii, oasele si sistemul cardio-vascular si discuta in detaliu absorbtia nutrientilor necesari in timpul zborului spatial pentru a contracara aceste mecanisme adaptive si pentru a asigura o constitutie fizica imbunatatita la intoarcerea pe Pamant.
