Full Description

This exam addresses the crucial functions of vitamins and minerals in various biochemical processes, focusing on their roles as cofactors in enzymatic reactions and their impact on metabolic pathways.

Knowledge of micronutrient functions is essential for understanding potential deficiencies and their implications for health. The interplay between micronutrients and macronutrients influences overall metabolic efficiency and health outcomes.

The examination will test the candidates' abilities to articulate the biochemical roles of specific micronutrients, their dietary sources, and the consequences of deficiencies or excesses in the diet.

Candidates should prepare to discuss case studies or examples illustrating the impact of micronutrient status on health and disease prevention.

Sample Questions

  • What roles do B vitamins play as cofactors in metabolism?
  • How can deficiencies in iron affect metabolic processes in the body?
