As the title says, this is an introductory course. Good walkthrough of things to look out for and key concepts when thinking about how to make better, more nutritious decisions, but does not get into much technical detail.

A good introductory course, regarding healthy eating habits & good practices. Everyday tips for better eating & cooking are mentioned. Recommended for anyone who wants to grasp the basics of healthy nutritional based food.

I think this was a good course for being at the introductory level, however, the quiz questions could be a little more challanging and maybe adding in an interactive activity here and there would make this course perfect!

This course says it ,the way it is.The food concepts are explained simply and cooking tips at the end made it a complete course.Only one tip I feel needs work.Some more recipe without eggs and definitely skip the nutella!

El curso es genial, realmente es un complemento para las personas que llevamos estilo de vida saludable, y las recetas estuvieron bien, aunque me hubieran gustado también su versión vegana, aunque ya me la puedo imaginar.

It was nice to learn about food and health as at was benefic to have a good diet in today life .. the teach was good as per video ... I have knowledge about food and health ...

I am glade to have this course .....Thanks😊

Very easy to follow, simple and straightforward - wouldve liked the class to be even longer but it's a great start in awareness and it's such a critically important topic! The cooking videos very fun to watch-Thank you.

Great learning quick and easy to understand for adults and specifically where both the partners are working and facing challenges related to food, cooking and diet(healthy eating). Thank you Stanford and Coursera teams.

I have learned some basic rules to follow in order to stay healthy. For example, go for substitutions instead of elimination. Eat in moderation, eat real food and mostly plants. Trans fats should be avoided entirely.

I am so in love with this course, and it thought me lots of things more about healthy living and diet, i will love to be a dietitian and also talk to people about the things they take into their body.Thanks Coursera

very good course for a basic understanding of food and nutrition.Learned a lot from this short series of videos.

But the information is very basic, not for career advancement, wish to see an extension of this course.

Курс для тех кто вообще не понимает ничего в питании, для тех кто имеет несколько обучений в сфере питания, диетологии, нутрициологии, тренингу-курс не интересен. Плюс слишком растянут, его можно пройти за 1-2 дня.

Simple course with very basic advise of how to create healthier eating habits, everyone with or without interest in nutrition should know these basics. Videos are short and the course doesn't take long to complete.

It's a good course, I wished it was a paid course with a certification (a diploma) with more number of lectures that one can study in his or her part time upto one year. Dr Maya, your teaching style is excellent.

I think that this course is a great way to begin learning all about health and nutrition, the only flaw I have found in it is their use of hard to understand scientific terminology and their lack of explanation.

I went into this hoping for more insight into nutrition on the biochemistry side of things. It ended up being more of a practical guide to healthy eating, which, though valuable, was not what I was looking for.

This course helps you to understand correlation of food and health. Not only helps us to eat healthily but this course also gives several recipes to try. Have delicious and healthy meal is all we need isn't it?

This course is a great way to get the year started in the right way. It's simple enough for anybody to understand without leaving any of the important information out. It's a lot of fun and it's easy to follow.

Very informative and accessible. The lectures are straight-forward and the concepts are vividly portrayed. Suitable for beginners who just want to get a sense of food nutrition and the quizzes are really easy.

I enjoyed this course. It is intended for American audiences and people with a more limited knowledge about food and cooking, but in spite of this I learned quite a few things that I did not know. Recommended

The information shared in this course is very basic, and most probably as a European or an Asian you will not learn much. However, the quality of the videos, animations and interviews is on a very high level!

Very good course, provides appropriate amount of information on nutrition needed, not so much to become a professional nutritionist but just enough to understand the right kind of diet to lead a healthy diet.

The course provides very useful information and a basis for starting to live a healthier life. It is explained quite clearly and concisely. It is very short though. would enjoy going deeper into the subject.

Information: excellent

Visual aids: beautiful but sometimes tedious and repetitive, sometimes unpredictable, more creative ways of visual aids can help understand and remember better.

Overall excellent course.

As a medical student this course is very helpful for me and it's enhanced my knowledge about food and health related information and I took some new healthy recipe from my helpful and coperative instractor.
