NOTE: Nutrition Science is designed to be a full high-school level science course with labs. However, it CAN also serve as a high-school-level health credit if needed.

Different from a health class, this science course will focus on the chemical components of macro and micronutrients as related to applied medical nutrition therapy. If interested in pre-med, nursing, or dietetics/nutrition, this class would serve as a good introduction to college-level studies. Open to students of any interest, Nutrition Science will teach critical thinking in the application of basic chemistry and biology to real life senerios. Food science will be the focus of labs.
