Culinary Medicine (CM) courses offer an innovative solution.  \nMethods: We tested the ﬁrst Frenchspeaking CM courses among 2 groups of second-third year medical students, compared to a control group (CG) . The objectives were to assess if an optional CM course could enhance their conﬁdence in both nutritional knowledge and providing nutritional advice, and improve theirfood agency (CAFPAS: Cooking and Food Provisioning Action Scale) . The analysis examines changes in scores by comparing post-session to presession questionnaire measurements.  \nResults: Of the 22 CM students and 6 in CG, predominantly aged 20- 25 years, Caucasian, and female, the majority (CG = 100%, CM = 86.4%) reported \u003C5 hours of  \nand ability to advise about  nutrition during the sessions. We also observed improvements in their CAFPAS scores, which measure food agency, while the  \n‘“Students unanimously acknowledge that nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining good health, the development of chronic  \ndiseases, and their management.”’  \nnutrition education. Almost all expressed dissatisfaction with nutrition education provided in medicine, both quantitatively and qualitatively. CM students reported signiﬁcantly increased conﬁdence in their knowledge  \ncontrol group exhibited no change in conﬁdence or CAFPAS scores .  \nConclusion: The ﬁndings highlight CM as practical strategy for integrating nutrition education into medical curricula, offering insights  \nDOI: 10 . 1177/15598276241252612 .

A systematic review revealed a global deﬁciency in nutritional education for medical students, resulting ina lack of conﬁdence in their knowledge and an inadequate preparation to provide effective nutritional guidance.3 However, the role of nutrition in health is well recognized, both as protective risk factor and treatment for chronic diseases.4-6 The global crises of obesity and type 2 diabetes posed signiﬁcant threats to the health and economies of nations worldwide.7-9 In a landscape where chronic diseases prevailed, envisioning global patient healthcare by physicians became challenging without sufﬁcient education anda substantial interest in nutrition.
