Main themes
- A detailed description of the processes of digestion and absorption
- A review of the main aspects of the metabolism of glucides, lipids and protides, with a special focus on the regulation and on the fate of the dietary constituents
聽- An integrated view of the main metabolic pathways via the analysis of some specific physiological situations (fasting, diabetes, exercise, pregnancy, lactation)
- A detailed analysis of the dietary requirements of humans (energy, nitrogen, amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamins, water, minerals, dietary fibre), including the biochemical, metabolic and physiological justifications for them
- A detailed presentation of the concept of 'healthy food' in relation with some chronic diseases such as type-II diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, intestinal diseases.
