Food and nutrition are topics discussed daily in the media. The
information, however, is often contradictory and nobody knows what to believe and what to discard, what to eat and what to avoid. The course „Basic Nutrition“ covers the basis of nutrition from human physiology to evidence-based recommendations, and teaches how to use this knowledge to make your own diet healthier. Every person should know what, why, how and how much to eat and how to make healthier choices.
“This course made it clear that nutrition is one of the cornerstones of life.”
