Getting older doesn’t mean giving up flavour, variety or good health. In fact, nutrition becomes even more important as we age. The Geriatric Nutrition Guide Course dives into how diet affects energy, digestion, bone strength, memory and more — all tailored for ageing adults. Whether you're supporting a loved one or simply curious about how food choices evolve with time, this course offers guidance rooted in nutrition science without ever sounding like a lecture from your least favourite biology teacher. You’ll explore age-related changes in appetite, nutrient absorption, and how different diets can support common conditions like arthritis, diabetes or heart health. With everything delivered online, you can learn at your own pace without squeezing into a classroom or deciphering medical jargon. It's straightforward, evidence-based information, written with care — and a touch of common sense — for anyone who believes that a good meal should still come with a good reason.
