This program will allow you to identify, according to the latest scientific evidence, the SNPs that are related to the development of hypertension in order to draw up dietary recommendations aimed at its prevention in various types of patients"

In the area of Medicine, Nutrigenetics has become a relevant tool to favor the prevention of diseases and to guarantee the optimal health of the patient. Through updated research, the ability to discern which foods are the most appropriate or which should be avoided for those people with a genetic predisposition to suffer pathologies such as hypertension or diabetes is obtained, therefore ensuring the well-being of each person. In this way, given the wide benefit provided by this discipline, it is essential for doctors to master it, as it significantly facilitates their work in anticipating diseases or optimizing their recovery.

In view of this situation, TECH has promoted the creation of this postgraduate diploma, which will allow the medical professional to deeply manage the latest evidence on the SNP that favor the emergence of various pathologies in people with a genetic predisposition to suffer them, therefore enriching their health performance. During 6 months of intensive learning, they will analyze how single nucleotide polymorphisms drive obesity in different types of people or they will assimilate the dietary guidelines to reduce Cholesterol through food. They will also delve into the latest research aimed at looking at the influence of SNPs on cancer.

Thanks to the 100% online mode in which this program is developed, students will have the opportunity to develop their own study schedules to achieve a completely effective learning. In the same way, this program is taught by the best experts in Nutritional Genomics and Precision Nutrition, so all the knowledge that they will assimilate will be applicable in their professional experiences.
