At no other point in history have we been so acutely reminded of how important our immunity is and how serious things can get if it is healthy and thriving. Our immune system is our defence agains everything that ails us and keeping it strong is of vital importance. Not just for warding off coughs and colds, but for protection against some of the most serious conditions that plague us. Cancer for example is a disease that relies on a strong robust immune system to be managed successfully by the body

This module explores the cells and organisation of the immune system, how they function, and how diet and nutrition can support and even enhance the way in which this vital system works.

Assessment: a combination of an online exam, case study evaluation, and recipe/meal plan design project.
