    Pharmacology, and polymorphisms

    Pharmacotherapy is defined as the use of drugs for treatment of disease and health maintenance. Medication use amongst the population is increasing among all age groups. In the elderly population it is very common to use multiple drugs due to increasing comorbidity. Food-drug interactions and nutritional status can change the effect of drugs.  In addition therapeutic side-effects of medication can change the nutrition status. Understanding basic principles of drug-pharmacokinetics and food/nutrient – drug interaction is essential for clinical nutritionist in assuring optimal patient outcome in nutrition therapy.

    Learning goals:

  • Know the principles for the relevant drug-therapies
  • Knowledge of about the 25 most used drugs in Norway.
  • Knowledge about the most important “problem-drugs” that need special attention regarding dosage and use.
  • Evaluate benefits and potential interaction associated with the use of several drugs.
  • Describe interaction between drugs and nutrients.
  • How to compensate and what to recommend with interactions between drugs and how to increase/reduce micro- and macronutrients.
  • Identify potential side effects by drugs
  • Evaluate drug therapy in relation to other non-drug treatment.

    Polymorphisms

    Many chronic diseases result from interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Genetic variations can therefore affect susceptibility to specific diseases, which can develop over time and in relation to environmental exposure, including diet.
    The details of the complex interactions between genetics and environment in the field of nutrition and disease are being investigated with the help of new technologies, but our understanding of the complex problems of pathogenesis, prevention and treatment is still in its infancy.

    Learning goals:

  • The role of various genes in common complex diseases
  • The importance of environmental triggers in the search for the underlying genetic causes
  • The complexity of the problem and difficulties in identifying susceptibility genes of modest effect
  • How to define the mechanisms by which genetic variants, together with environmental factors, cause clinical disease
  • Being able to discuss the use of genetic information for personalized nutrition.

    Immunology and Nordic diet

    The immune system, and thus our resistance to disease, is affected by nutrition in various ways. Nutritional deficiencies are known to impair the immune response, and increase the incidence and severity of infectious diseases including tuberculosis and HIV. Food is responsible for many allergies, especially in children. The process of atherosclerosis is exacerbated by inflammatory cytokines, which can be produced in response to nutritional factors.

    Learning goals:

  • The immune system; innate immunity; cell-mediated and humoral immunity.
  • Nutrient-immune reactions.
  • Allergies.
  • Roles of nutrition and immune response in specific diseases

    Nutrition from pregnancy to childhood

    Nutritional needs are not constant. They vary with life-stage, and also can be affected by lifestyle, cultural and ethnic characteristics of different population groups.

    Adequate nutrition in infancy is essential for growth and development. In term babies born to well-nourished mothers, breast milk can supply all the energy and nutrients needed for the first 6 mo of life (with the exception of vitamin D). The benefits of breastfeeding in relation to infant and long-term health, as well as the optimal duration of the breastfeeding period, will be emphasized. Furthermore, the recommendations on infant nutrition, including the introduction of complementary food and the composition of the diet throughout the first year of life will be discussed in detail. Nutritionists have long recognized the importance of establishing healthful nutrition practices during childhood and early adolescence. Diet patterns adopted during these prime developmental years set the stage for life-long habits that can mean the difference between vitality and infirmity in later years. Data about eating habits among Norwegian children and adolescents and tracking of eating habits from adolescent into adulthood will be presented and discussed.

    Learning goals:

    Pregnancy

  • Nutrition in pregnancy.
  • Gestational diabetes
  • Overweight and pregnancy
  • Physical activity during pregnancy

    Nutrition for infants

  • Basic physiology of lactation and breastmilk composition
  • Prevalence of breastfeeding in national and international perspective.
  • Health effects of breastfeeding for mother and child Nutrition for mothers during lactation
  • Recommendations on infant nutrition: Nutrition during the first year of Life.

    Nutrition in the elderly

    While nutrition in the elderly can be justified as a distinct topic, it is important to recognise that they are an extremely heterogeneous group, ranging from fit and active to geriatric, and their nutritional needs vary accordingly. Under- and malnutrition are not uncommon, and can be the result of physical, psychological and social factors. Practice as a nutritionist/dietitian in nursing homes and home care services have particular challenges; the provision of adequate nutrition is rooted in Norwegian law.  

    Learning goals:

  • The heterogeneous group known as ‘elderly’.
  • Importance of food and meals for the elderly.
  • Factors affecting diet and nutritional status.
  • Strategies to prevent under- and malnutrition.
  • Nutrition in nursing homes and home care services.
