General description and relevant information |
Know the properties of bioactive ingredients and their function in the body. Evaluate its functionality. Know the current legislation on functional foods and consumer perception. Discuss current issues in nutrition. In addition, an overview of the evolution of nutrition and dietetics, and contextualizing this evolution in today's society where there have been important scientific and technological advances that prevent and diagnose pathologies but, on the other hand is subject to a “caloric overload”. The compositions of some of the current diets will be presented, as well as the possible health benefits they can present. Teaching will be face-to-face as long as the limitation on the capacity of the classroom due to the health emergency allows it. If the number of students enrolled exceeds the capacity allowed in the assigned classroom, teaching will be mixed (face-to-face and distance) at the scheduled time. The specific organization will specify in the Moodle space of the subject depending on the health emergency situation. |
