Course Objectives: | The scope of the course is to explain the effect of the hereditary structure of the individual on the determination of nutritional habits, to stay away from the diseases to which he is genetically predisposed as much as possible and to evaluate the importance and effect of nutrition in order to ensure a high quality of life. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. will be able to interpret the relationship between genetic factors and nutrition. 2. Will be able to develop recommendations for nutrient consumption to increase the expression of genes associated with diseases. 3. will be able to compare genetic diversity-ethnic differences in nutrition. |
This course includes genetic variation:nutritional applications, relationship between genes and nutrients or nutrient components, nutrigenomics and gene expression, nutrigenomics in the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of food components, vitamin metabolism, genetics and environment I, vitamin metabolism, genetics and environment II, enes, diet and plasma lipids, genetic variation and nutritional requirements, gene: environmental interactions and coronar heart disease, gene-nutrient interaction in type 1 diabetes, cancer nutrigenomics, article discussion topics. |
