Question

Will Carlton

I may have the chance to introduce WFPB, no SOS to the staff of a regenerative farming nonprofit. What Rouxbe courses would prepare me best to demonstrate the nutrition to them?

Answer

You know, I'm, I'm not sure how to best answer that question. Um, there's the unit that features, uh, Dr. Esson and Neil Barnard and others, and that's very, very good. I have to say, uh, like many Rouxbe graduates, I did the e Cornell Nutrition Program, uh, at the T Colon Campbell Center for Nutrition, and that's also an online course. And that really helped me to understand the nutrition foundation of foods that we eat and why we use them and why quinoa is such a wonderful, uh, seed to eat because it contains all of the essential nine amino acids, et cetera, et cetera. So I would say will to investigate, look into the medical unit, but I think Ecor dovetail with Rouxbe would work really, really well for you.
