The Gaples Institute CME/CEU online nutrition course was featured in this story about doctors learning to respond to nutrition questions from their patients.
“The interactive, self-paced program offers evidence-based information that provides the foundation physicians need to begin an effective nutrition conversation with patients.”
As patients stream into your office motivated to eat more healthfully, a series of online courses can prepare you to help them make the nutritional changes needed to prevent—and help treat—heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.
The course starts with a fact that many physicians may not realize: Dietary factors are the single most significant risk factor for disability and premature death in the United States, according to a study from the U.S. Burden of Disease Collaborators.
Physicians can complete the online course at their own pace. Interactive screens walk doctors through facts pertinent to the benefits of nutritional interventions. Physicians have an opportunity to check their knowledge throughout the course to make sure they understand the material being presented, and links to studies supporting the material allow learners to dig deeper.
