Nutrition and the Gut Microbiome: Where Are We Now? Where Are We Going?

Explore the latest research on the effects of diet on the gut microbiome. 

The Learning Process:

Participants are expected to watch the video, reflect on its content, and complete the CME self-assessment and CME evaluation. Only upon completing this process will a participant's continuing education certificate be generated. The estimated time a learner will need to complete this self-study activity is 30 minutes.

This activity is approved for continuing education for physicians, nurses, and dietitians. 

The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences designates this enduring activity for a maximum of 0.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Objectives:

• Describe the bidirectional relationship between nutrition (the diet) and the gut microbiome.
• Identify hurdles to nutrition-gut microbiome research including interindividual variability.
• Evaluate the gaps in our understanding of the nutrition-gut microbiome relationship.

Participants will be awarded contact hours commensurate with participation after completion of the post-test with a score of 70% or higher.
