Foods and us have a relationship, and this course defines that relationship. Personally, this course provides positive experience for me in regards of food, meal preparation, and eating in moderation.

It was very informative course. It could have more quizzes and assignments. The way things were explained in the course was quiet interesting. Keep it up!! course. I really like this way of education.

Interesting course. What I did not like was the amount of sugary ingredients to be used in the recipes(especially sugar). I do know sugar is a main problem of the western diet but it looks like we are not ready to acknowledge this. Otherwise, very interesting. Thank you!

Great course! Loved it and am thankful to have been able to complete it. This is where I first began to really understand nutrients. I would like to see an updated version as in 2020 there is more information that would be relevant and useful in this course syllabus!

The course was informative, condense to be easily understood, and was well done. I left the course eager to learn how to cook!
I think the course could have demanded / pushed the students a little more to think about this deeper.
I am excited to try out the recipes!

I have heard it all before, but it doesn't hurt to hear it again, and again, and again. Slowly the advice sinks into my thick skull...I appreciate all the advice and the cooking videos and recipes!!! Thank you for a great course...I'll be back again, and again....

Simple and easy to follow course that gives you the basics that you need in order to make healthier choices when it comes to food and shopping. It gives you the general knowledge needed in order to make informed decisions when it comes to buying and preparing food.

Michael Pollan is wonderful! Great fundamental tips. Music can be distracting. Maya's speech is a bit slow...Pollan's pace was stronger. Visuals were clean and easy to digest. Content was succinct and memorable. Appreciated the brevity of the videos. Thank you.

I got a good basic insight abot food and eating habits. The way Maya makes her receipes is too orgasmic. I mean she has taken cooking and eating healthy to a new level of awareness. Overall a good course to study the concepts of food, nutrition and health. Thanks.

Great, very short, introduction to health. A very good starting point. I would love to learn a lot more, but I think this is something you can go through in an hour and take something away from. Would not pay for this certificate, but would still recommend taking!

I'd like to thank everyone who took part in creation of this course. Two weeks that I spent for studying were incredibly useful and interesting for me. I hope this information will help me to lead a healthy lifestyle and maintain a healthy relationship with food.

very useful as an overview for beginners who have very less idea on nutrition. but i wouldn't recommend it for someone who wants to gain expertise in diet planning ( for themselves or other). its very basic and helps bursting some common myths and misconceptions.

Great information, but in some instances I would have liked to see the course delve a little deeper into the topic. This was a minor concern however, overall it provided the information that mattered, and did so in a simple and "easy to digest" manner. Well done!

A pretty good course for beginners, or for those who simply wanted to be more educated on food and nutrition for the daily person. It is a little simple for those who have approximately a high school level knowledge of biology, but nevertheless, contains good ti

Very simple yet informative course to familiarize yourself with the basics of nutrition. It really gives you the opportunity to also think about what you put into your body, and gives you the knowledge necessary to make better decisions regarding your own diet.

An excellent introduction to health, nutrition, and food. But the point of focus is mostly about western food, which I couldn't relate to most of the time. Nevertheless, I did enjoy the course's strong foundation regarding health, consumption, nutrition, etc.

I already knew most of this, but it is very helpful and I like the easy A.
It's nice to have an easy course once in a while and it will still look good on a resume.
And it's nice to have what you already know reinforced. Though I do wish it had more content.

El curso me pareció muy interesante y dinámico. PreferirÃa que en los cuestionarios pusieran preguntas de mayor reto y omitieran las que verdaderamente no tienen ningún sentido.
Felicitaciones! Me encanta coursera y me inscribiré a otro curso.
Gracias y saludos.

Achei as receitas muito saudáveis, práticas e de preparo rápido. Aprendi como melhorar o meu preparo de panquecas. Mas, achei que receitas não incluirem também aqueles que são intolerantes a ao leite e seus derivados. Por isso a minha avaliação é de 4.5

Well presented with not too much information per session. For people who haven't got much basic knowledge about nutrition and healthy eating in practical terms. Just a refresher if you have done any health education or home economics classes at school.

I like the information provided here but being an individual keen on nutrition, all this information was rather basic for me. I would have preferred a more detailed course. Nevertheless I quite enjoyed it and Maya seems very sweet and talented. Thank you.

All the videos are very well produced and the information is easy to understand. Maybe is a good idea explore more content because a lot of information is available free in the documentary "In defense of food" (Michael Pollan) also in these video lessons.

Good course. It would be nice to have 1 or 2 healthy meal recipes at the end of the course as an example. I like that I can work on the course as I have time. The only downside is posting comments for each chapter because it is not an active discussion.

Al inicio creà que no servirÃa, pero la información es un repaso de lo que mucha gente recomiendo - pero no todos practican.
Me gusto porque al final fue muy practico para conversar y persuadir a las personas que cambien a una alimentación más saludable
