             throughout the life cycle, to nutrition in clinical settings, and in specific disease 
             states.

                   them. 
                5.  Discuss the special nutritional problems throughout the lifespan and 
                   how to promote good health in infancy, middle years of childhood, and 
                   adulthood. 
                6.  Identify the nutritional dietary goals and guidelines for Americans. 
                7.  Identify food behaviors that will enhance the quality of life in later years. 
                8.  Understand requirements for food safety. 
                9.  Understand global nutrition including undernourished people throughout
