Overview
Nutritional Therapy – How Food Affects DNA and Much More! explores the relationship between food, nutrients, genetics, and human wellbeing, introducing the fascinating field of nutrition at a biological level. The course considers how dietary components interact with cells and biological processes, while introducing concepts such as genes, DNA, metabolism, inflammation, antioxidants, gut health, and nutrient function. It gives participants a broader perspective on how food can influence physiological processes beyond simply providing energy.
What we eat can interact with numerous systems within the body. Participants will examine nutrition-related concepts including gene expression, nutrient metabolism, oxidative stress, micronutrients, dietary patterns, digestive health, and the relationship between nutrition and long-term wellbeing. The programme also introduces the growing area of nutrigenomics, helping learners understand how genetic variation may influence nutritional responses and how dietary factors can affect biological pathways. Evidence, limitations, and responsible interpretation of nutrition information are also considered.
The subject can be particularly interesting for people involved in wellness, fitness, food, health education, complementary approaches, or personal development. Nutritional Therapy – How Food Affects DNA and Much More! is suitable for beginners, nutrition enthusiasts, wellbeing professionals, carers, fitness practitioners, and anyone curious about the science connecting diet and biology.
