Alimentazione e promozione della salute
Understand the correlation between lifestyles, diet and successful aging: along with genetic predisposition,.
Understand the criteria to be used to assess nutritional adequacy including the sufficient intake not only of essential nutrients, but also of fibers and food bioactive compounds, needed to fulfill nutritional requirements for optimal health. Acquire in-depth knowledge on how nutrients are able to regulate gene expression and how maternal malnutrition during pregnancy can induce persistent metabolic and physiological changes in the fetus through the altered epigenetic profiles leading to different susceptibility to various chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular, and diabetes, in later life. Learn how diet is a key modifiable factor influencing the composition of the gut microbiota, indicating the potential for therapeutic dietary strategies to manipulate microbial diversity, composition, and stability.
Bioetica della nutrizione
The educational objective of the teaching is to develop knowledge and skills useful for evaluating and justifying decisions concerning the most relevant ethical issues as well as investigating bioethical issues related to human nutrition.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• Evaluate foods for their caloric contribution and essential nutrient intake, such as macronutrients, micronutrients, fibers, and bioactive molecules.
• Understand that a proper nutrition is essential for the prevention, management, and care of numerous diseases.
• Develop knowledge of different types of malnutrition, such as undernutrition (wasting or stunting), micronutrient deficiencies or insufficiencies, overweight, obesity, and diet-related noncommunicable diseases.
• Realize that the gut microbiota is crucial for the fermentation of non-digestible substrates and the production of essential metabolites, and that diet can impact its composition and function.
• Acknowledge the genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors that lead to differences in how individuals respond to diet.
