This unit also discusses the impacts on human health, food sources, dietary intakerequirements and status assessment methods for these nutrients. You will estimate dietary intake of thesenutrients in human subjects, and you will review the scientific literature related to these nutrients, which youwill review and discuss in a literature review. This unit integrates nutrition knowledge with the science ofbiochemistry and physiology, and knowledge of statistics developed in XNB255. It provides the foundation onwhich further studies of nutrition and dietetics can be built, and develops life-long learning skills required fornutrition and dietetics professionals.","title-full":"XNB251 Nutrition Science","title-short":"Nutrition Science","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=XNB251&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=XNB251","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=XNB251"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
