Student Furnished Course Supplies/Prerequisites: No prerequisites required, students should have a basic interest in nutrition and science! Paper materials will be supplied at each class.

Course Description: Nutrition-the key to health in every stage of life! This field of science is constantly being updated, and the foods we love have changed more in the last 100 years than the last 100,000. Amid this change, the leading topics seem to remain a mystery-is fat good or bad? What about salt? How do we know what to eat, and what not to eat? This four-day class is designed to clear up the confusion surrounding fat, salt, food labels, and more: so you can make well-informed decisions to support a happy, healthy life!
