Professional Certification Track
Culinary medicine specialist is a designation that identifies clinicians, coaches, chefs, and other practitioners who have comprehensive knowledge on nutrition, culinary coaching, and culinary skills simply blending the art of cooking for health. Culinary medicine is not gourmet cooking. It pairs the art of food preparation with the science of medicine. It is the practice of helping patients use nutrition and good cooking habits to restore and maintain health. It's about teaching the why and the how behind low-cost, convenient, health-promoting, and delicious home-cooked meals and healthy eating patterns.
It is about learning which foods reduce inflammation and promotes lowering of blood cholesterol as it is about how to properly slice an onion and cook food with rich flavors with enticing plate presentation. More importantly, culinary medicine offers individuals an opportunity to practice culinary skills and taste new recipes alongside health education. All of which are delivered in a way that effectively translates to the home kitchen.
Culinary medicine is a purely evidence-based field of medicine. A growing number of medical schools in the United States are increasing the education provided to their students on clinical nutrition by bringing medical students into the teaching kitchen. And now the Philippine College of Medicine finally brings Culinary Medicine Certification Course to Asia. It is a program with a blended curriculum composing of online and in-person modules that anyone can finish between 6 to 12 months at their own pace.
The online component will provide foundational knowledge in Culinary skills, behavioral coaching, and clinical nutrition for a specific disease group. You will be learning about the optimal diet for pregnant women who are crucial in determining their offspring's future health outcome down to the next generation. There will be a great emphasis on Chronic disease prevention and reversal such as Diabetes, Heart disease, and dyslipidemia based on published evidence.
