CHSU Discovery

Background: The imperative role of dietary interventions in managing chronic diseases is well-established, yet medical school graduates often feel ill-equipped to provide nutritional guidance to patients. In response, California Health Sciences University (CHSU) has integrated a Culinary Medicine (CM) course into the curriculum, with students applying their training during clinical rotations. This study seeks to assess the effectiveness of CHSU's CM course for fourth-year medical students (OMS-IV) and its potential to bridge the gap in nutritional education.
