The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed a fragile global food system. It has highlighted changes in consumer demands, and a need to rapidly develop food sustainability. You may be interested in empowering healthy communities. You may want to be part of building a sustainable global food system. Well prepare you to take on these challenges in the post-pandemic world.<br/><br/>Nutrition explores how the body processes nutrients and the impact of this on health. Many diseases are influenced by diet, such as heart disease, diabetes, obesity and certain cancers.<br/><br/>Youll use the latest research to understand global nutrition challenges. Our nutrition course combines nutritional biochemistry, practical techniques and physiology. Youll study the drivers of food choice and eating behaviour. Advanced modules in human nutrition will cover public health nutrition and nutrient-gene interactions.<br/><br/>Youll use our specialist labs and work on real-life research projects.<br/>- Youll examine sustainable nutrition and look at this as part of global food security<br/><br/><br/>- Working on evidence-based nutrition, youll use research to understand and identify fake nutritional news<br/><br/><br/>- Work with leading nutrition scientists to solve the most urgent nutrition issues facing society<br/><br/><br/>Accredited by the Association for Nutrition, you can become a Registered Associate Nutritionist and use the ANutr qualification when you graduate.
