Intestinal Microbiota and Homeostasis in Nursing

The study of the Intestinal Microbiota opens a door to the knowledge of multiple diseases, bringing great value to the nurse's curriculum"

Numerous pieces of scientific evidence have implicated the intestinal microbiome and its metabolic potential in various pathological conditions in recent years, giving rise to new therapeutic strategies to control and regulate this ecosystem. The study of this ecosystem is a field of rapid scientific progress, and it is universally accepted that to achieve an adequate state of health it is also necessary to have a "healthy" Microbiota.  

The human microbiota undergoes changes as a consequence of the influence of multiple factors, diet, lifestyle, pharmacological treatments, etc., generating alterations in this bacterial ecosystem and the anomalous interaction that the organism could have with it is related to certain processes: allergies, acute and chronic intestinal diseases, obesity and metabolic syndrome, neurological diseases, dermatitis and other alterations in the dermis, and even some types of cancer.  

This Postgraduate Certificate in Intestinal Microbiota and Homeostasis in Nursing focuses on providing nurses with the necessary information on the units related to the Intestinal Microbiota, paying special attention to the Homeostasis process that involves the body's ability to self-regulate in order to maintain a healthy intestinal flora. 

In the same way, the use of Probiotics and Prebiotics and the growing market launch of new products with very specific strains for problems and diseases of the intestinal tract will also be addressed. All this content will enable nursing professionals to be prepared to offer effective solutions to patients with this type of pathology, knowing how to guide them so that they can recover and maintain their intestinal microbiota and, consequently, promote a good state of health.  

Through this Postgraduate Certificate you will be able to guide the patient to help them recover and maintain the bacterial balance in order to maintain a good state of health, in addition to collaborating in a positive way with the medical treatment indicated.  .
