We all know that our bodies need food, and that feeling hungry is the body's way of making sure we never forget it. But past that, what really happens when we give our bodies food and which foods are best for which purposes? And how much of what we think we know is just clever marketing more than actual science: is breakfast really the most important meal of the day? Do carrots give you superhuman eyesight? Join pediatrician Dr. Tabitha Michaud to learn all about how our bodies turn food into fuel for energy, for growing, for bone and muscle development, for your immune system, and more. You'll see how food gets converted into nutrients from your mouth to your stomach to your bloodstream, discover which nutrients serve which purposes, and come away much more in tune with what your body is telling you it needs based on how you feel. Note: This course focuses on how the body works, not rules about eating. There is no “good vs bad food” language — just science, empowerment, and body literacy.
