Here's a really clear and easy way to learn about the basic concepts about nutrition in a very entertaining podcast that not only doesn't bore or confuse you but will keep you going back to the website for even more info. The topics are very well chosen and the facts are explained clearly. Monica is funny and rigorous at the same time. I whole-heartedly recomend it to everyone interested in nutrition, it is one of the podcasts I really look forward to every week!!! Thank you, Monica, and keep up the good work!
