Course overview

We live in a world where there are often many different opinions about what we should be putting into our bodies. It can be confusing. We all know there are some foods that are good for us and others that are… not so great, and some that are even considered “superfoods”! How do we know that what we’re eating and drinking is giving our body what it really needs? 

Learning the basics of nutrition will give your employees all the information they need to build a well-balanced diet. They’ll understand why the right balance between food groups is important when it comes to being nourished and healthy. Maybe they’ll even find they can still enjoy those “not so healthy” things, too. As long as it’s in moderation.
