Tematika

A conscious and rich diet can be a source of great pleasure but unhealthy lifestyle and eating habits can lead to disease. Additionally, individual behaviour is increasingly important when it comes to health. The topics covered in this subject will provide you with the knowledge to develop critical thinking for health-conscious eating. The course provides students with useful information that will help them navigate in a concise way through nutrition science and the inseparable world of food and the food industry. Nutrition knowledge has evolved enormously in recent years, and marketing and media skills have put 'basic truths' in a different light. After a brief historical overview, we will learn about macro- and micronutrients and their role in metabolism. Furthermore, individual nutrient requirements are discussed, as well as the pathogenic role of proportionally inappropriate diets and over-consumption.
