Batch 4 Student

The course has been amazing and very
inspirational so far, the knowledge depth and base
of the teachers is commendable. If you are
passionate about learning how you can take
control of your health and thereby your life .. in an
Indian backdrop this is the course. How much you
can assimilate and how much more you can
research is totally individual but there is so much
guidance. Sometimes I'm guilty of asking stupid
questions but each of them are patiently answered
by my teachers. I highly recommend this course.

Batch 2 Student

Functional nutrition has greatly helped me identify
pieces of puzzles in nutrition science that
mainstream nutrition science would never have
done. I feel that I now have a greater
understanding of what goes inside my body and
how to heal it in times of adversity. Also with
thousands of supplements in the market, functional
nutrition allowed me to choose which ones are
really effective and which ones are a marketing
gimmick. If one wants to heal holistically, functional
nutrition is the way to go!
