Brief description
Culinary Medicine represents a new method of translating the findings of nutritional medicine into the living environments of patients and clients and thus optimising the success of the counselling process. To this end, Culinary Medicine combines nutritional medicine, nutritional science, dietetics and psychology with practical culinary skills. The online continuing education series Culinary Medicine has 8 main topics and consists for each main topic (online seminar over 90 minutes) of a multimedia scientific lecture accompanied by thematically corresponding cooking recipes, which are prepared live in the cooking studio. The series is based on the consensus paper "Nutrition Therapy in Clinic and Practice (LEKuP, Hauner et al. 2019)".
US studies show that professionals who are trained in Culinary Medicine advise patients much more often or better on nutritional topics. This is primarily due to a stronger connection to the living environment in the counselling (recipes, shopping, cooking, shared meals, etc.). Interprofessional cooperation in nutrition teams is also improved by Culinary Medicine. The new subject thus synergistically complements nutritional medicine by training essential practical counselling skills. For the first time in Germany, Culinary Medicine is offered as an independent online continuing education series for physicians and nutrition professionals. All essential indication groups in LEKuP are addressed.
Evidence-based scientific foundation: Guidelines for Nutrition Therapy in Clinic and Practice (LEKuP)
