Nutrition for Life is a one semester
course providing an introduction to the basics of nutrition and
the primary information needed to make informed decisions that

minerals, and water) will include some discussions on the
current arguments in nutrition science. Lab activities
include some in-class activities as well as home projects in
food preparation.
