Applied Nutrition and Food Technology introduces the readers to the application of technology in the field of food and technology, as it goes on to explain what food technology is and updates the people with the history of food science. Listing the various principles of food technology and preservation. Also discussed in the book are the methods of food technology, the role of fruits, vegetables, meat and the products based on it, in providing the required nutrition to the people. It also provides the readers with knowledge on the preservation practices in the storage of meat and meat-based products, discussing the future possibilities in the field of applied nutrition and food technology.

Keeping the importance of the food in our life, it is very important that all people either engaged in food processing or not, should know about the various terminologies being used in food processing for better understanding the concept. But to understand the various concepts of food science and technology, some sort of documentation is needed which the book does to perfection covering the following: o The book contains around 5000 word important acronyms; glossary of related terms for all alphabets from A to Z. o terminology pertaining to food processing, post harvest technology, food science and technology, food engineering, food packaging, food biochemistry and applied nutrition, food and industrial microbiology, processing technology of snack food o bakery and confectionary, cereal crop, beverages, fruits and vegetables, diary, meat, poultry & fish, food biotechnology, food additives, food enzymes, waste management, food toxicants, fermentation technology, health foods and nutraceutical, food quality systems, and analytical techniques for quality control etc. o The terminology in each alphabet has been well illustrated with examples for better understanding. Book shall prove to be a boon to the food professionals like students, researchers, teachers and all those who have interest in the area of Postharvest Technology, Food Technology, Food Science and Technology as well as for professionals related to food processing. The book will be highly beneficial to the undergraduate as well as postgraduate students of various agricultural universities
