Moodle at CCNM

There is arguably nothing more important than teaching your patients how to eat well for the prevention and proper management of any chronic disease.  Between food industry distortions and media hype, even healthcare providers are confused about how to advise their patients when it comes to food choices. This course is a sweeping expose of the facts about misleading claims, dangerous ingredients (including hidden-ingredients such as GMOs, food contact materials and heavy metals) and the unsavoury truth about our regulatory standards and food industry power.   Learning Outcomes Understand the  socio-political  and economic trends that impact usUnderstand how better to advise patients about the relevance of specific nutritional facts Learn about important labeling rules around allergies and gluten-free productsIncrease patient awareness about the relevance of nutrient and health claims
