The student university analyzes our eating and nutrition habits

How does it taste to you? Why "eating" is not "nourishing" - this is the topic that will be addressed on Saturday, June 10, 2023, from 12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. by the participants of the Student University of the Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (BTU). Young people from the 7th to 13th grades are invited to the online lecture.

The speaker Dr. rer. med. Antje Löffler is an academic staff member at the Institute of Health at the BTU. There is usually a big difference between what we eat and what we understand by healthy nutrition. Together with the participants of this lecture, the scientist will take a closer look at human nutrition and eating habits. It is worthwhile to look beyond the end of one's plate, for example, to our ancestors. In addition, the young people will learn which nutrients we actually need and why the head and the stomach sometimes have very different ideas about food.

Pleaseregister by e-mail to schueleruni(at)b-tu.de . The link to this online event will be sent afterwards.
