Here we go...
Many of the classic textbooks are great resources for the background and basic information on biochemistry and physiology.
One of my favorites is
Modern Nutrition in Health & Disease by Maurice Shils
(Current edition)
https://www.amazon.com/Modern-Nutrition ... 1605474614In addition, I highly recommend anyone interested in nutrition and health to go to the website of the National Academy of Sciences and the World Health Organization and read all their published reports on these topics. They are all free to the public at the websites.
NAS
http://www.nap.edu/topics.php?topic=380http://www.nap.edu/topics.php?topic=381(Check out all the subtopics & sections on the top also)
WHO
https://www.who.int/health-topics/physi ... #tab=tab_1http://www.who.int/topics/nutrition/en/http://www.who.int/topics/diet/en/In addition, the Institute of Medicine, the CDC, the National Institute of Aging also have great reports.
BIA
https://www.nia.nih.govAlso, this is a great one to understand all the science behind vitamins and minerals and all the differing recommendations.
Human Vitamin and Mineral Requirements
Report of a joint FAO/WHO expert consultation
Bangkok, Thailand
WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION
FOOD SND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS
Rome, 2002
http://www.fao.org/docrep/004/Y2809E/y2809e00.HTMAlso, while some of the info from the USDA, and FDA is influenced by industry, their reports and data are still great to read.
Enjoy, it is a lot of very worthwhile reading.

PS there will be a test!
UPDATED 2013
This was recently put together by on FB, and I think you may find it helpful in your educational journey. It is based on a lot of the resources I recommend along with the work of the leading voices in the PB world, and acknowledges that.
1) The leading programs out there that have produced and/or are producing published peer-reviewed credible research are the ones taught by:
- Dean Ornish, MD, and the Preventive Medical Research Institute (PMRI);
- The Pritikin Longevity Center;
- Caldwell Esselstyn, MD and the Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute;
- John McDougall, MD and the McDougall Program;
- Neal Barnard, MD and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM);
- Dr Hans Diehl and the Complete Health Improvement Program (CHIP);
- Walter Kempner, MD, and the Rice Diet program.

2) From the position of ADA on Vegetarian Diets
http://www.eatright.org/About/Content.aspx?id=8357"It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. Well-planned vegetarian diets are appropriate for individuals during all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence, and for athletes."
3) From the Report of a joint FAO/WHO expert consultation, “Human Vitamin and Mineral Requirements”
http://www.fao.org/docrep/004/y2809e/y2809e08.htm#bm08http://www.fao.org/docrep/004/y2809e/y2809e00.HTM“Populations should consume nutritionally adequate and varied diets, based primarily on foods of plant origin with small amounts of added flesh foods. Households should select predominantly plant-based diets rich in a variety of vegetables and fruits, pulses or legumes, and minimally processed starchy staple foods. The evidence that such diets will prevent or delay a significant proportion of non-communicable chronic diseases is consistent. A predominantly plant-based diet has a low energy density, which may protect against obesity.”
"Although two-thirds of the world’s population depends on cereal or tuber-based diets, the other one-third consumes significant amounts of animal food products. The latter group places an undue demand on land, water, and other resources required for intensive food production, which makes the typical Western diet not only undesirable from the standpoint of health but also environmentally unsustainable. If we balance energy intake with the expenditure required for basal metabolism, physical activity, growth, and repair, we will find that the dietary quality required for health is essentially the same across population groups."

Most vegetables, fruits and beans fall into the low-energy-dense category. It is yet another reason to base your diet on plant-based foods.”
“Basing our diets on plant foods (like vegetables, fruits, whole grains and legumes such as beans), which contain fiber and other nutrients, can reduce our risk of cancer.
"For good health, AICR recommends that we base all of our meals on plant foods. When preparing a meal, aim to fill at least two-thirds of your plate with vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans.”
“Plant foods can also help us to maintain a healthy weight because many of them are lower in energy density (calories).”
“Cut down on processed foods. In general, the healthiest foods are those that have only been minimally processed, such as vegetables, fruits, wholegrains and pulses.“
“Eat more of a variety of wholegrains, pulses such as beans, vegetables and fruits.
“Basing our diets on plant foods (like wholegrains, pulses such as beans, vegetables and fruits), which contain fibre and other nutrients, can reduce our cancer risk. These foods contain plenty of fibre and water and tend to be lower in energy-density which means they can help us to maintain a healthy weight.“
Tips for eating more plant foods:
At least 5 A DAY, every day. Vegetables and fruits are the building blocks of a healthy diet - we should aim for at least five portions a day. They are high in nutrients like vitamins and minerals. Most are also low in calories and are good sources of fibre, so they are filling and can help us avoid weight gain.
http://www.wcrf-uk.org/cancer_preventio ... ations.php"Fill 2/3 or more of your plate with plant foods. When preparing a meal, aim to fill at least two thirds of your plate with plant foods like vegetables, wholegrain rice, cereal and pasta, beans and lentils.”

http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/pdq/ ... ient/page9The American Cancer Society and the American Institute for Cancer Research both have dietary guidelines that may help prevent cancer. Their guidelines are a lot alike and include the following:
Eat a plant-based diet, with at least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day. Have several servings a day of beans and grain products (such as cereals, breads, and pasta). Eat less meat.
Eat foods low in fat.
Eat foods low in salt.

http://mylifecheck.heart.org/Multitab.a ... Code=en-ushttp://circ.ahajournals.org/content/127 ... 0.abstract“A healthy diet is one of your best weapons for fighting cardiovascular disease. When you eat a heart-healthy diet (foods low in saturated and trans fat, cholesterol, sodium and added sugars, and foods high in whole grain fiber, lean protein, and a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables) you improve your chances for feeling good and staying healthy– for life!”
“Eat vegetables and fruits. They are are high in vitamins, minerals and fiber — and they’re low in calories. Eating a variety of deeply colored fruits and vegetables may help you control your weight and your blood pressure.
Eat unrefined fiber-rich whole-grain foods. A diet rich in fiber can help promote weight loss because fiber keeps you feeling fuller longer so you eat less. It can also help lower your blood cholesterol.”

- achieve energy balance and a healthy weight
- limit energy intake from total fats and shift fat consumption away from saturated fats to unsaturated fats and towards the elimination of trans-fatty acids
- increase consumption of fruits and vegetables, and legumes, whole grains and nuts
- limit the intake of free sugars
- limit salt (sodium) consumption from all sources and ensure that salt is iodized

Caloric Restriction, the Traditional Okinawan Diet, and Healthy Aging
The Diet of the World’s Longest-Lived People and Its Potential Impact on Morbidity and Life Span Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 1114: 434–455 (2007).
"the long lived Okinawans got 69% of their calories from sweet potatoes, another 19% from rice, wheat and barley (which totals 88%) and another and 6% from legumes (which makes 94% from cooked starches). They are not only one of the longest lived populations, but also one of the longest lived without disability and in good health. Their disease rates are for many of the chronic diseases are some of the lowest."
Earlier in the decade, around the turn of the century, many of them, actually got up to 93% of their calories from sweet potatoes alone. These would be the same ones who becameCentenarians today.

The longed lived and healthy Chinese Centenarians, got 55% of their calories from sweet potatoes, grains made up another 15% (totaling 70%), beans another 9%, meaning 79% of their calories came from starchy vegetables. Vegetables made up another 9% and fruit was a small part.

In regard to performance, the Tarahumara Indians are world renowned for their ability to run long distances (sometimes over 100 miles at a time), and virtually no sign of any of the chronic diseases we die from. Around 71% of their calories come from corn and 19% from beans which means 90% of their calories come from starchy vegetables.
