Eating is an indispensable human activity. As a result, whether we realize it or not, the drive to obtain food has been a major catalyst across all of history, from prehistoric times to the present. Epicure Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin said it best: "Gastronomy governs the whole life of man."

great book with lot of information.
great book with lot of useful information. some 20% could be trimmed though. focus more on diet and exercise adhering to the book title..could have also focused on mental aspects such as stress life - by giving some significant time in yoga, paranayama and breathing exercise

Interesting points
I learned some facts I was not aware of from this course. It also gave me some pointers on how to make changes in my daily life to get my weight under control. While the professor did fumble some words time to time, it was not unlistenable. I would recommend this course to someone wanting to understand nutrition and how it effects their bodies.

Total waste of time for me
it is incredible. this guy spends literally 80% of the time stating the painfully obvious points. “exercising more is good” , “lifting weights will help you increase muscle mass” , “eat healthier diet” , all these sentences were said by him 50 times in various ways. i’ve never felt my time so disrespected by an audiobook.

No B.S. overview of a healthy lifestyle
Straight forward and scientifically supported health advice, free of profit motivations. The lecture style is dry, but the content is gold.

Basic Knowledge
I was expecting more up to date research analysis. Ideally it would have included a major overhaul of these elementary concepts in light of breakthroughs of the genetic factors influencing body composition. I can not recall a single reference to even solid genetic research now ten years old.
It did offer basic nutrition information, good discussion of special senior requirements and a now standard review of metabolic function.

Good Content - Poor Narration
I know a lot about fitness, and nutrition and this course does a good job covering a lot of info. Yes, If you know a lot about this topic, then you are going to hear things you already know. Overall I did like the course organization. It was mostly review/reinforcement for me, but I did pick up a few things. I enjoyed the material. It was time well spent learning.
The narration was very difficult for me. The author of the course reads his course notes - almost written like a book. He reads very poorly. TGC should have chosen a professional narrator. He stumbles over his words, and misreads most sentences. Again, he just reads aloud very poorly.

Slow and Basic
Very basic info broken down into mindnumbingly simple terms for 12hrs. The narrator sounds like a unlucky grad student who lost a bet and had to present this.

informative
this is a great review even for me a physician who have counseled patients about weight loss there is a lot of new information in this book that is not just to Physicians but also the lay public. the speaker also was good in that he would pause slightly after each sentence to let the significance register in the mind.

Not much new, posted supplements
scientific in the main, but strongly promotes dubious supplements based on tiny studies of short duration.
first part of the book explaining digestion and nutrient absorption is much better
