Intermediate
Practical Nutrition Course
The Intermediate Practical
Nutrition Course is for the serious-minded student
who desires a deeper exposure to scientific and social
issues surrounding Modern Nutrition, Health and Disease. Upon
completion, you will be certified as a Intermediate
Practical Nutrition Advisor.
In
each module, Dr. Brouse presents the current understanding
in
each pertinent
area
from the human nutrition perspective. Controversial
subjects are approached from an inductive standpoint allowing
the student to critically analyze the concept. As
an example; healthy plants come from healthy soils, which
bring up the question of “What is the effect of
single crop farming and commercial fertilizer application
to the
quality of food?”
Each module is enriched
with a practical assignment for the participant. An
open book final examination brings together the concepts
from
each module and enforces the participant's grasp of biochemical,
physiological and life stress effects on human nutrition.
Prerequisites
This course is challenging and requires a certain
level of critical thinking and necessitates a fundamental
foundation of basic nutrition. Therefore, the Basic
Practical Nutrition Course is
highly recommended, but not required, before enrolling
in this course.
Course Outline
This
course is designed to give the student the opportunity
to develop the skills necessary to advance to the Advanced
Practical Nutrition Course course. This course is
structured in such a way that it may be taken several times
as the specific
area of study is constantly changing, i.e. Immune System.
