Really good as an introductory guide to general human nutrition. Gives great insights on cooking, planning meals and health diet habits. It's a rather short course with actually impactful information.

This course taught me a lot about the components of food! Processed and non-processed food which was the best food of all. I will be happy to spread this healthy dietary ways to my family and friends!

Não façam. O certificado vem com um belo "sem créditos autorizados pela stanford" estampado, além de, apesar de toda propagando com numero de horas antes de iniciar o curso, isso tb nao vir no diploma. Uma bela de uma propaganda enganosa. Tentando um reebolso ja!

Курс оказался очень низким по уровню предоставленных знаний. В стране, где я живу, у каждого есть кухня и никого не нужно учить готовить элементарную еду. Что вредно есть транс-жиры и так давно всем понятно. Ничего полезного я для себя не извлекла.

Truly disappointed in this course and upset I spent the money to get the certificate of completion. The only module that was informative was the macro + metabolism. I would have rather preferred a course in depth from Michael Pollan himself.

This course is mostly based on common knowledge. I did learn a few new terms but not the way I expected it to be. Also I do not thing an entire model should be focused on recipes. This is not a cook book

This course has no interesting information and does not go into details. All the information given is quite vague and to be found easy on the internet if you are interested in the topic.

This is not a course - this is a 90 minutes lecture.
The idea is greate. But this lecture is only start. Its very brief and not profound.
This more advices and not scientifically oriented.

an entire classist and fatphobic misunderstanding of nutrition and science to shame americans instead through fear of disease instead of knowledge and empowerment. gross, honestly.

This course offers very little substance; very superficial and shallow treatment of the subject. Only a complete novice to the idea of eating well would learn much of value here.

The content is very basic and easily accessed via youtube, which is fine if the course is being offered for free. Having this as a paid course is not worth the money at all.

If you kindly offer me a free certificate, than I rate 4 stars for your short course Stanford Introduction to Food and Health. So you win I win. Fair. Million thanks.

Interview with Michael Pollan is 3 minute sections. Nothing intriguing or helpful for anyone with a basic knowledge of food and a tendency to not eat junk food.

It is very basic and the principles are for a third-grader. After all the things said, at the end the first video was about pancakes (nvm they were gluten free)

This course was very disappointing and with extremely simple and basic information. It's eating and nutrition for those who have no knowledge about it at all.

This was a very basic course on nutrition. If you have any knowledge on basic nutrition, cooking, and eating this is not the course for you.

Way too short and far too easy. The videos do not need watching to complete quizzes. This is the most common sense approach to nutrition.

Really poor. It of course depends on the level you are at. But this is aimed for an absolute beginner. Really disappointed. Waste of time

Well, this course definetely has a clear message and a good purpose. However, it is very basic and coursera might not the right platform.

I am a scientist and I prefer advice from primary sources rather than journalists who give no citations.
Besides, the course is trivial.

You do not need to take the course to know about healthy eating. Complete waste of time. Finished in less than 30 minutes altogether.

I feel dumber for having taken this course. I was looking for courses in Food Science, and ended up up with a home-ec class.

Very Biased towards high carb vegan diets, and describes outdated information regarding saturated fats and animal protein.

Very basic information. I was disappointed because I was looking to dive past a middle school understanding of nutrition.
