It reviews biochemical pathways of neurotransmitters, hormones, fatty acids, amino acids, and carbohydrates in the mitochondria, nervous system, heart, kidneys, endocrine system, and other cell-signaling molecules to examine where the dysfunction may be corrected through diet, herbal medicine concepts, supplements, and other treatment modalities. (48-0-3) PHRE 5021—Integrative Pharmacy and Clinical Nutrition I This course provides foundations of how environmental factors, diet, medications, epigenetic changes, and genetic variables can disrupt biochemical pathways and create human physiologic imbalances and nutritional deficiencies that lead to various symptoms, illnesses, and diseases. The GI, endocrine, immune, nervous, circulatory, cardiovascular, genital-urinary, skeletal, and skin systems are analyzed as they pertain to biochemistry, nutrient utilization, physiological function, symptom, dysfunction, and disease. Medical problems are evaluated from a clinical nutrition perspective, evaluating nutrient depletions and nutritional deficiencies. Vitamins,
