The goal of the course is to introduce some of the basic concepts of nutrition, to familiarize the student with the complexities of the issues with in-depth considerations of selected nutrients, and to consider the role of nutrition in a few clinical situations. This is intended to be a base upon which to build a more complete understanding of nutrition as topics with nutrition content arises formally and informally in the student's future. It is impossible even to introduce the entirety of the science of Nutrition in so short a time. Hence, a modest number of important topics have been chosen to be studied in detail, in the hope that if the student knows these well, the student will be able to deal more easily with the complexities of other areas.
