Great course for learning about the benefits of a whole food plant based approach to nutrition. Easy ways of incorporating more whole plant foods are outlined throughout the course with plenty of videos for guidance too. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is curious about focusing more on whole plant foods as there is a lot to be learnt from the 5 units in the course!
