Nutrition / Diet

Course summary

Lessons will be both theoretical and practical. Practical sessions will involve skill development and investigational work. You will gain an understanding of the science of food safety, nutrition and nutritional needs in a wide range of contexts. Questions will be posed to promote higher order thinking and response skills, for example, is any food “bad” for us? How does a food business ensure the food it produces is safe to eat? Why does obesity continue to rise despite the warnings?
