iCFN stands for Integrative Certification in Functional Nutrition. It is iThrive’s flagship 6 month functional nutrition programme, designed to take learners from foundational science through functional diagnostics, intervention design and supervised case practice.

iCFN is a 6-months programme combining foundational learning, live clinical modules, case based learning and supervised practice.

No. iCFN is designed for learners from different backgrounds. Learners without a science background begin with the Foundation Gateway, which covers essential anatomy, medical terminology and the functional nutrition framework before the live clinical learning begins.

iCFN is designed to help you build the knowledge and practical skills required to work in functional nutrition. Depending on your background and scope of practice, pathways can include independent nutrition practice, nutrition coaching, wellness or corporate health programmes, or further supervised work through iThrive’s advanced mentorship pathway.

iCFN goes beyond nutrition fundamentals to teach functional diagnostics, systems thinking, protocol design and supervised case practice. The emphasis is on understanding the patterns that inform why a recommendation may be appropriate.
