Nutrition and Health (Downloadable DVD)

The starting point of the sequences will either be the eating behaviors of students or the testimonies or questions they have about their diet. Practitioners and dieticians concretely explain the different consequences of an unbalanced diet: - Overeating: obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular consequences with a comparison of a normal arteriography with that of a patient with atherosclerosis, - Nutritional deficiencies, avitaminosis, - Anorexia, bulimia. Another theme addressed: 'Diet and physical activity' which links physical activity and the proper functioning of the cardiovascular system (e.g. checking blood pressure).
