Testimonials
"It was a thoroughly enlightening and educational experience that far exceeded my expectations."
“I found it very intriguing and it has opened access to a new window of opportunities to correct my patients’ symptoms. I feel there is so much hope I can give to my patients now."
“Having completed study of these modules, I can honestly say my understanding of nutritional and environmental medicine has been significantly enhanced, particularly with regards to nutritional biochemistry and the critical role of macro and micronutrients (which I feel was never well taught during medical school) and the microbiome."
