Institution:

Naropa University

Subject:

Description:

Students learn basic human physical, nutritional requirements from four perspectives: the field of nutritional anthropology; the scientific discoveries of the twentieth century; direct experience; and from intuition. Students acquire information and tools to determine a diet that suits them best now, as well as how to alter that diet as requirements may change during life. We study the dietary changes in the twentieth century that underlie our most common causes of chronic disease and death and suggest nutritional strategies to prevent those diseases.
