Chronic Conditions and Nutrition

The Chronic Conditions and Nutrition program aims to provide students with the skills and knowledge required to interpret and use basic information about nutritional principles and healthy diet, using Eat For Health (new Australian Dietary Gudielines).

The program provides foundation knowledge on energy needs, basic food groups, identifying good food choices, special diet groups, obesity, client interactions for BMI management and introduces the student to the concept of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander foods, which is an emerging evidence base.

The Program is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Health under the Chronic Disease Support Project.
