Nutrition & Diet courses in Ireland
As the old saying goes, you are what you eat. When it comes to maintaining your health, nutrition and diet are a very important aspect; this is why a career in this area can be both interesting, rewarding and well-paid. Dietetics and nutrition experts work with people and help them to sustain a healthy lifestyle, whether they have special dietary requirements or health problems which can be aggravated by an unhealthy weight. These experts could work with clients or patients who suffer from food allergies, or elite-level athletes who wish to maximise their performance levels. Nutritionists and dietitians study the science behind the components of food and the values they have. A third level or PLC course in Nutrition & Diet can be a great first step into a career in this field.
