Beyond basic vitamins and minerals, specialized nutrients such as polyphenols, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and probiotics play critical roles in modulating inflammation, gut health, and metabolic processes. By understanding the mechanisms behind specialized nutrients, practitioners will be able to personalize interventions for their patients, improving outcomes for complex chronic conditions.

Module 2 explores:

• • The therapeutic benefits of bioactive compounds in condition and disease management
  
  • The gut microbiome’s influence on immune function and systemic inflammation
  
  • Clinical strategies for using specialized nutrients in areas such as cognitive function, cardiovascular health, and metabolic disorders

Why It Matters in the Full Program

This education delivered in this module bridges the gap between conventional nutrition and advanced therapeutic interventions, setting the stage for more targeted dietary approaches and nutraceutical applications later in the course.
