Course Objectives: | Main objective of this course was to teach definition of nutrition, importance for human life and health, energy and nutrients, daily requirements, food sources and nutrient deficiency situations on the basis of scientific studies. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; At the end of this course students be able to; o Comprehend the importance of energy, macronutrients (carbohydrate, protein, fat/oils) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals)on healthy nutrition and body functioning. o Identify the dietary sources, metabolism and deficiency states of the macro- and micronutrients; determine the requirements for different age group and gender. o Evaluate the foods for their macro- and micronutrient content. o The students gain the knowledge about the nutrition of sub-groups in the general population (elderly, workers, pregnant and lactating women, athletes) that sensitive to nutritional problems |
Adequate and balanced diet, nutrient-health interaction, importance of macronutrients on nutrition, food sources, metabolism and daily requirements, energy production from energy-yielding substrates (carbohydrates, protein and fats/oils), energy requirements for different age groups and gender, importance of vitamins and, classification, food sources, metabolism and daily requirements; energy and nutrient requirements and nutrition-health relationships of the elderly, workers, pregnant and lactating women, athletes are subjects of this course. |
