An in-depth course on the nutrient density of avocados and their potential benefits. I enjoyed having course material that I can complete with the course workbook followed by the external links and activity questions. I have a better understanding of the different varieties and now I want to try growing my own!
I gained additional information regarding how avocados are grown and the exposure to how they are grown can help others who are wanting to become more resourceful in their gardens. I’ve been able to learn and implement ways healthy fats can fit into a healthy lifestyle. I can provide clients with a better understanding of how they can incorporate avocados as a replacement for less healthy fats while also providing benefits to their health.
I will apply the knowledge from this course by giving people a healthier alternative to fats that are commonly found in their diets. For those that aren’t as familiar with avocados, it gives some good ideas on how to incorporate them. From the nutrient density to the unique way that avocado trees pollinate there was a lot of great information and reinforcement on topics.
I am now an avocado expert! I will be able to pass my knowledge onto my clients.Wonderful!
All the information about the history of this wonderful and natural wonder Avocado opened my mind and enriched my knowledge about the benefits of this nutritional fruit. I chose this course for my continuing education because actually I made this fruit product a major part of my lifestyle diet. And I wanted to know more about how it helps my health and how better I could consume it to benefit my energy level for a long time to come. I can share all the knowledge I got about what I have learned with my clients my friends and family members. I will definitely integrate it into my curriculum of teaching and apply it to the nutrition plans of my yoga and tennis students as part of my current target segment. As I managed their fitness program I can also manage their eating habits and bring additional value to their healthy diet. I always find GMP Fitness courses interesting and fun. Thank you for doing such a good job of providing helpful and valuable subjects relevant to our profession.
New information on the value of avocados in our health.
