Dr. Rosalind Gibson’s Principles of Nutritional Assessment is known by many as “the nutritional assessment bible”. This comprehensive resource is now under revision and revised chapters are being made freely available on https://nutritionalassessment.org.
So far seven chapters are available, including the chapter on zinc! The other available chapters are on the topics of food consumption of individuals, nutrient reference values, vitamin D, calcium, copper, and selenium. The chapters have been radically revised with additional new content, diagrams and references.
IZiNCG’s page on assessment of zinc status has been updated with references to this new online resource.
Dr. Gibson is an IZiNCG Steering Committee Emerita and a present IZiNCG collaborator. We are so grateful for Ros’s effort to produce a third edition of “the book” and for making it accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
