Food Science and The Human Body<br />
DVD<br />
Food Science and the<br />
Human Body<br />
As Life Long Learners we continue<br />
to enjoy exploring the topic of food:<br />
cooking styles, nutrition, insights,<br />
and cultural histories. This course<br />
is a more scientific approach to the<br />
subject, one that also includes<br />
fields like biology, neurology and<br />
human evolution.<br />
Dr. Alyssa Crittenden is an Associate<br />
Professor of Anthropology at<br />
the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where she is also an Adjunct<br />
Professor in the Department of Medicine, will offer eye opening<br />
answers about the evolution of the human diet and its relationship<br />
to our bodies, bringing together insights from a range of fields<br />
including anthropology, biology, history, nutrition, health science,<br />
economics and sociology. She will lay bare what science can teach<br />
us about how food works on our bodies and how it can harm us<br />
as well as help.<br />
