The course aims to give a clear overview of existing scientific knowledge and evidence on nutritional and lifestyle interventions in disease. It further aims to convey in depth knowledge on molecular mechanisms that underlie nutritional influence on microbiome and immune system interactions and its impact on diseases.
The course discusses the impact of nutrition and lifestyle on microbiome, immune system and disease and covers 3 major topics on the subject:
Topic 1: Defining healthy nutrition and lifestyle
- Nutrition for health and normal physical activity
- Introduction of nutritional impact on immunity
- The microbiome as interface between nutrition and lifestyle and immunity
Topic 2: Dietary interventions in obesity & diabetes
- Obesity
- Diabetes
Topic 3: Dietary intervention in various chronic disease management - what is the evidence?
- Cardiovascular disease
- Cancer
- Autoimmunity

| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | - Presence at the Journal Clubs and task assignment sessions is obligatory
- The evaluation consists of multiple parts. For all parts of the evaluation, at least a score of 8/20 must be obtained in order to pass the course. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | - Students who are unjustified absent at one ore more journal clubs or task assignment sessions, receive as final grade for the course an "N - unjustified absence" and have to attend the missed journal club(s) in the next academic year to receive their final grade. The students needs to re-enroll in the course in the next academic year.
- A student who achieves a score lower than 8/20 on one (or more) parts of the evaluation
will receive 'F - fail' as final result. This final result is not tolerable.
A student who scores at least 8/20 for all parts of the evaluation receives as score the
weighted average of the different points. This final mark is tolerable.
Eg. 8/20 + 16/20 = 12/20 (passed). |
