Dietitians and nutritionists
Understand the impact of heredity on your nutritional approach
Develop your understanding of individual differences and the knowledge that informs dietetic support.
Your practice, your challenges
Scientific insights for dietetic support
In your practice, you may encounter situations that seem inconsistent: committed, motivated patients who nevertheless see no lasting results.
These situations are not solely about diet. They reveal an essential reality: every patient has a unique biological make-up.
Your support takes each person’s habits, constraints and goals into account. Deepening your understanding of genetics and epigenetics allows you to explore another dimension of individual differences.
The courses invite you to connect this knowledge with your professional questions, within your scope of practice.
