Key topics include:

· The link between diseases (eg Alzheimer’s, Type 2 diabetes, certain cancers and heart disease) and poor nutrition decisions

 

· How to apply just Three Principles (the foundation of good nutrition decisions) and 30 nutrition myths that can be ‘busted’ (eg it’s a myth all saturated fat is unhealthy)
