Foods and Nutrition

Foods and nutrition describes the science of nutrients in food and their actions within the body. Students in the Foods and Nutrition program study the role of foods and nutrients in both health promotion and disease treatment as well as the psychological and cultural factors that influence our food choices. The Foods and Nutrition program at UPEI is accredited by the Dietitians of Canada; our accreditation is evidence of the high quality program offered at UPEI.
