In a current society, professional ethics acquires a leading role and a fundamental importance in its development, and the training of future professionals, bioethics is the attempt of rational analysis of the duties that, as individuals and as members of a society, we have for ourselves or for others based on the nutritionist's ethical code consisting of six general principles: responsibility, professionalism, solidarity, respect, cooperation, legality. In the feeding of critical patients, in the nutritional support of terminal patients or different situations, ethical conflicts are frequently raised, so all their scientific knowledge and technical resources must be put into the performance of their profession.
