Learning Outcomes of UE

The developed concepts will enable the future doctor to understand the nutritional and metabolic needs of different categories of patients, at the level of both energy inputs and macro- and micronutrients input/deficiencies/overload. It develops the physicochemical and biochemical concepts useful in understanding the composition, cooking and digestion of food.

Content of UE

The UE develops biochemical and physicochemical concepts (energy balance, reactive oxygen species, vitamins, macro- and micronutrients, Maillard reaction, contribution of the colonic microflora in digestion, dietary fiber...). Some clinical applications allow putting into perspective the studied concepts.
