Overview
The Certificate Course in Cardiac Nutrition is a comprehensive course intended for healthcare professionals like you who work closely with cardiac patients and wish to optimally utilize cardiac nutrition to delay disease progression, minimize the drugs prescribed, improve quality of life, or in some instances, reverse the disease.
Nutrition for patients with cardiac conditions requires dietary modification to prevent cardiovascular diseases. However, its implementation in clinical practice needs to be improved by adequate formal training in nutrition science.
A strong understanding of cardiac nutrition enables you to provide patients with personalized, evidence-based recommendations for a healthy diet that considers their health needs and risk factors. This can lead to improved patient outcomes and a reduction in the incidence and progression of heart disease.
The Certificate in Cardiac Nutrition covers evidence-based nutritional guidelines for specific medical conditions, including a low-fat diet for individuals at high cardiovascular risk, a DASH diet for hypertension, and low-carbohydrate diets for overweight people and those with metabolic syndrome.
Upon completion of the course, you will be awarded a Certificate in Cardiac Nutrition, and you will be able to implement a heart-healthy diet and overcome the barriers that patients may face in terms of access to healthy dietary choices.
