Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2

To practice nutrition in medicine, it is essential to have a basic understanding of the biochemistry, physiology and pathophysiology of nutrients, the derivation and sources of recommended daily nutrient intakes (called Dietary Reference Intakes in Canada and the USA) and approaches to nutritional assessment. Many nutrients may have adverse effects if overconsumed – thus “more is not always better” - so there recommended upper intake levels of some nutrients have been set to prevent adverse health effects. The recommended ranges of intakes of essential nutrients are part of the Dietary Reference Intakes.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

Describe the nutrient-based dietary standard for Canada and the USA known as the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs).
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

Explain the application of the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) in clinical practice, become aware of age-specific nutrient recommendations including the tolerable upper limit (TUL), acceptable macronutrient distribution range (AMDR), and understand where these may be modified during growth, and special physiological states such as infancy, adolescence and high intensity exercise.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

Explore the role and safety of dietary supplements, and the application and regulation of health claims on food and supplement labels in relation to specific diseases.
General Objectives

Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Gastroenterology and Nutrition

Upon completion of this problem, students are expected to describe the key developmental milestones of the peri-pubertal stage and the nutritional requirements of the adolescent and the impact of extreme lifestyle behaviours on growth and nutritional health of adolescents. Students will describe common presentations of eating disorders.
