The idea of writing a book has had a relatively long gestation period. From a young age in the mid-eighties, as a biology and biochemistry volunteer tutor for underrepresented and disadvantaged high school students in Tunisia, I have had a profound desire to contribute to the personal and professional development of others. I feel the most fulfilled when I am educating and serving others. At that time, several students suggested that my notes could be organized and compiled in a text book. Unfortunately, although the idea was inspiring, I couldn’t write the book for diverse reasons including lack of infrastructure (computer, etc.) and scientific maturity as well as economic disadvantages and constraints.
As I am drawn to the challenges of teaching and research because it gives me the opportunity to mentor students and contribute to their intellectual growth, which I consider to be the most valuable and worthwhile accomplishment, I joined the University of Arkansas in 2013 to conduct research on avian molecular nutrition and to develop and taught a biochemical nutrition course (POSC/ANSC 5143). At the beginning of this class, my students from different departments (poultry, animal, and food science, kinesiology, and nursing) and I used several biochemistry and nutrition conventional textbooks that we ordered through textbook department. After interaction with several students, the idea of organizing and collate my course notes in a text book was revived and regenerated. Taking advantage of technology expanding and advancement, I decided to compile my course in an electronic book (book) to enhance the learning process, encourage the students’ creativity and learning autonomy, and reduce the burden of carrying heavy textbooks. This in turn, allows me to gain new perspectives on biochemical nutrition topics that inform my research, and reexamine the key ideas and assumptions that shape the production of knowledge in my field.
This book is intended to provide the readers with a comprehensive account of the interrelationship of nutrition and metabolism as well as an understanding of physiological changes that occur in the whole body as a result of excessive or deficient diets, and the endocrine and molecular regulatory mechanisms controlling such changes.
I tried to keep the book current with latest scientific advances and at the same time maintain a clear and readable style. It is my wish that this book will be revised and updated every five years because of the plenitude of new information and progress. Mrs. Humaira Hashmi, In-charge eBook department, at Bentham Science has been a source of support and encouragement. I owe a debt of gratitude to my family, my wife and my kids, for their unflagging support and their tolerance of my absence. Also, my students were the original inspiration for this book and I remain endlessly grateful to them, because from them I learn how to think and how to communicate knowledge in the most efficient, clear, and meaningful way.

INTRODUCTION
Biochemical nutrition can be defined as the science of nutrition and chemical basis of life. It is a combination of two very broad, but tightly interconnected and complementary disciplines. As the cell is the basic unit of life, and nutrition is meant to provide the necessary energy for cellular functions (maintenance, proliferation, differentiation, division, etc.), thus biochemical nutrition can also be described as the study of the interaction between nutrients and the chemical constituents of living cells and of the reactions and processes they undergo. Following this definition, biochemical nutrition encompasses various and diverse aspects of biochemistry (the study of chemical characteristics and reactions of a particular living organism or biological substance), nutrition (the study of nutritional needs of a particular living organism), dietetics (diet formulation), integrative physiology (the study of body function), pathology (the study of causes and effects of diseases), cellular biology (the study of cell structure and function), molecular biology (the study of the structure and function of cellular macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids), neuroendocrinology (the study of the physiological interactions between the central nervous system and the endocrine system), immunology (the study of the immune system), microbiology (the study of microorganisms and their interaction with the host), behavior (the study of organismal action and response patterns to stimuli or stress), and more recently modeling and computational biology (the study of biological system networks using algorithms and models). The ultimate goal of biochemical nutrition is to help apprehend the origin of life by unraveling, at the molecular levels, all the chemical pathways associated with living cells, to define their energetic (nutrient) requirements, and to integrate biochemical and nutritional knowledge into efforts to not only maintain life and well-being through health improvement, but also to understand diseases for subsequent development of effective preventions or therapies.
The major objectives of the present book are to provide students and readers with a detailed, simplified, and comprehensive account of the interrelationship of nutrition and metabolism which is defined as the totality of chemical processes that occur in a living organism in order to maintain life, an understanding of physiological changes that occur in specific organs and in the whole body as a result of feeding diets with excess or deficient amounts of nutrients, and the endocrine and molecular regulatory mechanisms controlling such changes. As there are considerable differences in metabolism, nutrient requirement, and sometime in molecular pathways between mammalian and non-mammalian species, a comparative approach is often taken.
I know that biochemistry and nutrition present sometime an unusual challenge for students due to their diverse backgrounds, learning preferences, and aptitude and levels of interest. By writing this book, my fervent hope is to help diverse students from anywhere at any time to learn fast, integrate relevant principles in physiology, biochemistry, and molecular signaling pathways as they relate to nutrition of the whole organism, and to evaluate current nutrition concepts with a better understanding of how nutrition affects health, welfare, and performance. This book should enable students to formulate a biochemical approach to an experimental nutrition problem thus supporting the application of basic sciences and problem solving skills.
After an overview of the need of food and water (chapter 1), and describing the cell and organ system components (Chapter 2), the book focuses on the regulation of food intake from the factor influencing appetite to the central and peripheral underlying mechanisms (chapters 3, 4, and 5). In chapter 6, author will discuss water intake and water homeostasis regulation. In chapters 7, 8, and 9, protein, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism are addressed from digestion and absorption to transport, utilization, synthesis, degradation, and molecular regulation. In conclusion, chapter 10 briefly summarizes the whole objective of the book.

Setting the Stage: The Need of Water and Food
Sami Dridi
Abstract
This chapter sets the stage and provides current knowledge related to water and food necessities. Both water and food are essential for life and major keys to survival. Although water is not included in the diet formulation, it is considered an inorganic nutrient, and it is consumed mostly as drinking water and from feedstuffs. A further source of water is metabolic water or oxidation water, which is produced when macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) are oxidized to yield energy. Water comprises 75% body weight in infants to 55% in the elderly and is essential for cellular homeostasis. Similarly, the macronutrients provide energy (measured in Kcals) and essential components to sustain cellular homeostasis and life. These macronutrients are consumed in different combinations and ratios to help achieve different goals and health (disease) states. In this chapter, a brief description of these nutrients is provided.
Keywords: Food, Water, Nutrients, Macronutrients, Energy, Proteins, Carbohydrates, Fats.

2Entropy is a scientific concept, as well as a measurable physical property that is most commonly associated with a state of disorder.
