Description
Stanford Introduction to Food and Health is a science-based course on nutrition and health published by Coursera Specialized Academy. The issue of diet and nutritional health is one of the most important questions and challenges of humanity in current times, which has found its place well in academia. Unhealthy and non-standard diet and eating habits can cause many diseases and problems in humans, some of the most important of which include type two and excessive obesity. These two diseases kill millions of people every year and cause numerous problems in the field of physical and mental health. In order to meet this challenge, a culture must be created and different strategies in the field of healthy eating must be presented to the population.
Academic research has shown that the continued consumption of highly processed and fast food and the lack of home cooking in the family environment have caused a series of chronic diseases that threaten the lives of many people.
