Good Afternoon
I have been wondering about doing the Nutrition Network Advisor Training - it’s the lowest level keto course offered by the Noakes Foundation… and if anyone has done this course I’d be very please to hear what you think.
By way of finding out I sent an email to a long-term keto blogger who suggested I could start with the courses offered by Coursera and in particular "A Short History of Obesity, Macronutrients & Their Effects https://www.coursera.org/learn/food-and-health/lecture/5f98p/introduction
This course is offered by Stanford University and is offered free, or for almost £30 to get a certificate. I signed up and took the free option - thank goodness.
I am surprised, no incensed and had to post about it…
The information, the education given, is the old nutritional science. The repeated emphasis is that we should think of food rather than nutrients - which isn’t quite what the course title suggests - so that we make better choices when we eat.
It’s a calorie in, calorie out approach with encouragement to choose wholegrains, and limit how much fat we eat.
The course only takes about 25 minutes including the test - so can someone else give it a go?
Now I haven’t completed the course and so maybe there is a tiny mention of insulin etc…
And please if anyone has done any course offered by The Noakes Foundation please let me know how it was for you.
