Endorsement – Dean, Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Alberta

At the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences, part of our core mission is to turn science into solutions for the public good. Each day our faculty members, undergraduate and graduate students, and staff members contribute to and support research that will eventually become these solutions.

The High Protein Cookbook for Muscle Health During Cancer Treatment  is just one example of the fulfillment of this incredibly important value. Professor Carla Prado, Anissa Armet, Hillary Wilson, and other researchers and registered dietitians at the University of Alberta have created this important and tangible resource to support the community with their expertise. The team has made this book widely available and easily accessible so that it has the potential to help as many people as possible.

I am certain that this work, on the heels of a number of other amazing contributions coming out of the Human Research Nutrition Unit as well as many other facilities, centres, and individuals at the University of Alberta, will continue to inspire further solutions to the issues that we face now and into the future. I am incredibly impressed and inspired by the work that has gone into the High Protein Cookbook for Muscle Health During Cancer Treatment  and hope that you will find it just as powerful and useful.
