Get healthy eating tips from top chefs
Healthy eating is key to a good lifestyle and positive mental wellbeing. However, many cooks and chefs are unsure of how to create healthy recipes and meals.
On this course, you’ll learn what a healthy diet really looks like from top professionals. You’ll get an extensive introduction to what a healthy diet looks like in practice, and learn how to practically implement this knowledge into your own cooking straight away.
Study the impact of healthy eating habits
Get an overview of how the digestive system actually functions, the biological factors that impact on our daily food consumption, and how a healthy gut can help the brain.
You’ll learn about the terminology behind nutrition, and understand the difference between calories and carbohydrates. Explore the importance of fibres, lipids, proteins, vegetables, and vitamins and in which foods to find these macro- and micro-nutrients.
Examine the link between diet and wellbeing
You’ll have the chance to reflect upon the impact that healthy eating has on wellbeing, and explore aspects of gastro-philosophy alongside noted hospitality experts at the Swiss Education Group (SEG).
Finally, you’ll explore what mindful eating means, and how to employ different healthy cooking styles.
Create a manageable healthy eating plan
With access to recipes designed by professional chefs to help you design your own healthy cooking, you’ll learn how eating right can improve our skin and muscles.
By the time you’ve finished, you’ll be able to create a healthy eating plan, bringing your new knowledge into practice at work.
This course would be suitable for entry-level cooks, chefs, and food lovers who are interested in developing their knowledge of nutrition and want to create dishes based on their concepts.
It would also appeal to personal trainers and healthcare workers who want to enhance their knowledge of nutrition to further their career.
