Nutrition, dietetics and diets (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786205987568)

The health of an individual is conditioned by a multitude of factors such as genetics, environment, stress, smoking, types of care, lifestyles, food consumption patterns, etc. There is a strong correlation between nutrition and health, since a balanced diet is a real factor in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, certain cancers, obesity and deficiency diseases. In order for the health professional to participate in primary health care, in the promotion of correct nutrition, and to be able to integrate general and specific nutritional recommendations for malnutrition, it is important that he/she acquires knowledge related to nutritional needs, the main dietary characteristics, the risks of deficiencies or excesses in vulnerable groups (e.g.: the elderly, pregnant women, infants, adolescents), diseases with nutritional or metabolic determinism, as well as means of prevention. This nutrition course is therefore designed to achieve and enable this type of targeted learning.
