Identify, with this qualification, the genes that are linked to lipid metabolism in order to undertake their possible modification through nutrition" 

Scientific advances have led to analyses aimed at detecting the genetic particularities of each person and, therefore, establishing dietary guidelines focused on modifying this DNA to improve the prevention of various types of pathologies. In this sense, many cardiovascular diseases or obesity can be avoided through the variations generated by different foods in the genes. Therefore, given the benefits and the capacity for individualization that Nutrigenomic provides, mastering its most relevant concepts is crucial for physicians who wish to provide detailed attention to their patients in order to minimize the risks of contracting various pathologies.  

Given this situation, TECH has promoted the creation of this postgraduate certificate, through which the medical professional will enhance their knowledge regarding the impact of different types of food and nutrients in the alteration of the DNA of each person. During 6 weeks of intensive learning, they will analyze the role played by the bioactive components of food in gene expression or detect the influence of the relevant and widespread Mediterranean diet on it. Likewise, students will identify genes related to insulin sensitivity or the development of arteriosclerosis.  

Thanks to the 100% online methodology in which this program is developed, the student will achieve efficient learning through the development of their own study schedules. In addition, this program is taught by leading experts in the field of Genomic Nutrition, which is why all the knowledge that you will assimilate will preserve a full professional applicability in your daily life.  

The postgraduate certificate in Nutrigenomic will allow you to analyze the role played by the different bioactive components of the diet in gene expression"
