Amazing how much I learned watching videos with all the exact words. Not only about nutrition, but about our planet and how to take care of it. Also very inspiring for having ideas for foods for kids.

Enjoyed it but perhaps a little too basic for my needs. Still would recommend if you are not familiar with nutrition.

Good basic information for every parent to know.

All of us should make time to cook healthier food for our families.

A pretty solid course, though there does appear to be a degree of cognitive bias regarding certain farming methods.

It is quite basic, and easy to be learned. I think it is better to have more recipes, like a week plan, etc.
