Contribute to the Development of ACNEM Online Learning Certificate, Diploma and Fellowship qualifications in NEM ACNEM training will soon be available online.  This means that healthcare professionals will be able to obtain Certificate, Diploma and Fellowship qualifications in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine by distance learning. We often acknowledge that ACNEM training is unique in the world, and through this initiative it will become available internationally, and to those in country and rural areas across Australia. However, the cost of developing the online learning platform is considerable and we are calling for donations from members and friends of ACNEM towards the development costs.  However, unlike a donation, we will treat your contribution as a credit towards your ACNEM education, training or membership needs for up to three years. If just 50 members donate $1000 each, or if 100 members donate $500 each, we will reasily each our target of $50,000.  Please consider whether you can help us develop this important initiative for ACNEM and for nutritional medicine.  We both need and value your support.  Click here to contribute online now

What is Nutritional and Environmental Medicine?
Nutritional Medicine

Nutrients are the building blocks of human physiology and play a key role in a person's health and wellbeing. Current medical literature increasingly bears out the fundamental role of nutrition in health-optimisation and the prevention and treatment of many common conditions.

Environmental Medicine

This area addresses the body's:

External environment - allergies, sensitivities, toxicities and level of ability to detoxify

Internal environment - the GI tract - gut flora, integrity of intestinal wall, nutrient absorption and the immune system
