A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Principles of diet therapy

Principles of diet therapy focus on tailoring nutrient intake to the metabolic demands of infectious diseases, balancing energy, protein, micronutrients, and fluid status while avoiding exacerbation of infection. Mastering these principles helps students design safe, effective feeding plans that support immunity and recovery, a core competency in the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE curricula.
