 Food provides energy and building blocks for numerous substances that are essential for the growth, development and survival of all humans. This section begins with a brief overview of the processes of digestion and absorption. Through these remarkable processes, a variety of foods are converted into individual nutrients ready for metabolism. Each macronutrient (proteins, fats and carbohydrates) contributes to the accumulated energies, but ultimately the energy they provide is available for the work of the body’s muscles and organs.

Nutritional counselling, the most important points of health.

A balanced diet is not a matter of course. It is a challenge that we often do not feel up to. The way nutrients become an integral part of the body and contribute to its smooth functioning depends very much on the physiological and biochemical processes that control their action. These metabolic processes are known to be altered by acute and chronic inflammation. During your training in nutrition, you will learn to recognise nutrition-related eating disorders. By gathering the necessary information from patients, you will develop a healthy eating concept tailored to their health.

Learning by thinking together - nutrition training at the Swiss Nutrition Academy

Food science is not a static subject. It lives from its complexity. It is closely linked to other scientific disciplines from which it develops its full competence. The most important aspect of training to become a nutrition trainer is interdisciplinary thinking. Indispensable for training as a nutrition trainer: a basis in the natural sciences, especially with biochemistry and anatomy. However, the social sciences are also part of being a successful nutrition trainer in order to develop the necessary competencies for assessment in the context of nutrition care.
