Graduate Certificate in Obesity and Eating Disorders
One of the main characteristics of western society's current eating habits is excess. Food intake that greatly exceeds real nutritional needs causes an emerging epidemic: obesity, which carries multiple associated pathologies such as diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis or cancer.
However, the consumer society imposes a body image on the individual. In this context, we find both obesity problems and eating disorders.
