Advanced Human Nutrition
Academic Noncredit

The purpose of the course is to obtain an advanced knowledge about nutrients, energy, and metabolism. The course will also focus on discussion of the causes of major chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes as well as the role of nutrition in preventing these diseases. An emphasis will be placed on the current research as it relates to each disease. Students will learn how to find and interpret the scientific literature and apply it to their own health.

This noncredit class meets with a regular University of Utah credit course.

Online book and material fees may be added up until the first week of class. Students may opt out during the first two weeks of class.
