This module explores human nutrition, examining chemical changes in food during production, storage, and consumption. It explores food and energy metabolism, specifically the role of macro and micronutrients, and metabolic mechanisms such as glycolysis and regulatory pathways. The curriculum also covers food processing, safety, and preservation methods. The latter half of the module emphasises human nutrition, discussing dietary requirements across different life stages, nutritional disorders, and diet's role in preventing and managing chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, heart diseases and hypertension. It introduces the concept of sustainable diets, underscoring the balance between optimal individual health outcomes, environmental sustainability, and social equity. Students will learn to apply this knowledge in diet planning and food product development, fostering an understanding of the impact of food choices on individual and public health.
