Intestinal Microbiota in Nursing

The study of Intestinal Microbiotics for Nursing opens the door to knowledge of multiple illnesses, giving your resume a great boost” The study of Intestinal Microbiotics for Nursing opens the door to knowledge of multiple illnesses, giving your resume a great boost”

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 that is rapidly advancing scientifically, 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 Diploma in Intestinal Microbiota in Nursing focuses on equipping nurses with the necessary information on the units related to Intestinal Microbiota, its Eubiosis and Dysbiosis and related problems. 

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 make it possible for 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, a good state of health.
