Fundamentals of Human Nutrition
https://www.coursera.org/course/humannutrition
the course is totally free. you only need to spend some time with it each week (4-10 hours according to the website). The professor teaching it is a Ph D from the University of Florida (Kristina von Castel-Roberts). You even get a certificate that you completed it as long as you do the required work.
Everything is online.
