A wonderful book

A great book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this book to be worthwhile and generally relatable to me. I further found the information generally intelligent and I further highly recommend this book.

helpful

Straight to the point on information needed. A good listen for detailed easy to follow knowledge.

Good place to start

Bit low level but a good start, I’m a physician and it does a lot of overly basic things but is a good way to begin if you start from nothing

Very comprehensive!

A comprehensive guide broken into easy to follow sections about nutrition that I did not learn in nursing school. I’m excited to implement much of what I’ve learned from this resource into my nursing practice and personal health journey.

DUMMY NO MORE!!!!!

The "for dummies" series always delivers, and never disappoints. Always learning something significant to deepen my knowledge on a vast, bast variety of subjects. So grateful that there are so many audiobooks to choose from. Keep'em coming!
