eatwellgetwell – a nutrition and medicine study blog

I have set up this blog to document and organise my thoughts, learnings and ideas about Nutrition.  I am doing a Naturopathic Nutrition Diploma which started October 2006.  The course covers a first year of Medicine study, learning about Anatomy, Physiology and Pathologies, and the second two years of Nutrition with study and 200 hours each year of Clinical practice.

I envisage this blog site to serve a number of purposes a few of which detailed below:

Primarily acting as a study blog, a way of documenting and publishing everything I learn and helping me to understand and remember imformation by processing it in my own words.  Furthermore, being a storage space for all my study notes so wherever I am I can access them.

It will also be a place where other people can view and comment on my writing, which may serve as useful if my tutors ever look at this site.

It may also help with my case study work in the 2nd two years of my course – I could assign a password protected page or collection of pages to each patient for example, where the patient, the course tutor and myself can all gain access to and comment on the case work.

And of course eventually it could serve as a resource of information from which I can pull from in my future professional practice.
