Nowadays our guests are getting more health conscious about what they eat.

This course does not provide an in-depth study of nutritional sciences but sets forth basic information about nutrients and guidelines for planning a healthy diet. Tips on using ingredient substitutions and alternatives to prepare more nutritious meals are also included. The Nutrition & Health course starts with listing the nutrients and their function in the human body. It then explains in detail the effects storage and different preparation techniques have on the nutritional value of foods and how to limit nutrient losses.
