What You Will Learn in the Health Science Department
The Factors that Affect Health
The main focus of our curriculum is to teach students about the components of the human body and the factors that affect health. There are many factors that have a direct influence over an individual's health such as:
What you eat and drink
Sleep and rest
How the body is moved
Emotions and thoughts
The environment
How well a person assimilates nutrients
Allof these factors are discussed within our core curriculum. Upon graduation from our program, students should be able to identify and discuss how these lifestyle factors can prevent disease and maintain balance within the human body.
