Entity Framework - La funzione Includi ASP.NET Core restituisce relazioni nidificate

Il metodo Include () di solito dovrebbe restituire l'elenco di oggetti specifici ma stranamente, restituisce tutti i suoi oggetti nidificati senza nemmeno usare ThenInclude (). Come devo bloccare questi oggetti nidificati?

return Db.Courses.Include(x => x.Program).ToList();

Ciò dovrebbe restituire l'elenco di corsi con oggetti programma ma restituisce anche gli oggetti corso presenti anche nell'oggetto Programmi. Come posso interrompere questo ciclo?
