There is no doubt that this transformation is a consequence of Community Pharmacy adapting to a changing society, where public health has reached high levels of control and safety, facing new challenges for which the pharmacist, the health agent and the community pharmacy are resources that are close and accessible to the user. 

One of these services is related to the field of Nutrition and to developing dietary recommendations. Today there is ample evidence on the importance of proper nutrition for the prevention and/or treatment of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus and cancer, among others. With more nutritional supplements becoming available to users, it is of vital importance that community pharmacists have the necessary training to dispense and advise on these products in an appropriate way, to give good nutritional advice and, when necessary, know when to make a referral to the appropriate professional. Although traditionally, several subjects related to bromatology, nutrition, food and food hygiene have been taught in the Bachelor's Degree in Pharmacy, more specific training is required in order to be able to advise users on the food products dispensed in pharmacies, as well as on their interaction with medicines.

For this reason, it is necessary to design and provide scientific and professional theoretical and practical training in nutrition under the auspices of the university.

This postgraduate certificate works on various current concepts in nutrition, not only susceptible to be used in the daily work of a community pharmacist, but also prepares him/her to be able to implement a nutritional counseling service in his/her pharmacy and enables him/her to carry out nutritional campaigns in other areas of population education.
