Overview

Everyone needs to eat. Some eat for pleasure; some eat to meet their athletic training needs. Different people have different nutritional needs. Sometimes, however, people are not informed on the healthiest ways to fuel themselves.

The study and application of this field is influenced by a growing and aging population, increased public interest in nutrition, and the food industry’s desire to meet public demand for a wider variety of nutritious products.

Nutrition education is an opportunity to help others make decisions regarding nutrition and health. With a Foods and Nutrition degree from Wayne State College, careers in health promotion, wellness programs, and food service management are good possibilities.
