Nutritional Therapy (advanced)

The Advanced Naturopathic Nutritional Therapy course (units 9-12) approaches each subject naturopathically and then relates it to our current understanding of western scientific research. The course includes all of the core elements of Nutritional Therapy as laid down by the National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Nutritional Therapy.

The course includes the study of the macronutrients and micronutrients in detail, anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, western nutrition, anti-nutrients, dietary analysis, human microbiome, acid and alkaline, PNEI, inflammation as a healing response, Drug interactions, detoxification, constitutions, case taking, naturopathic assessment techniques (tongue, nail and iris) and much more. Clinical supervision is an important part of this course.

This course differs from other Nutritional Therapy courses because it approaches each subject from a strong naturopathic foundation and then relates it to our current understanding of western scientific research. Successful students will therefore have the required knowledge to work in both areas together with a depth of understanding which will support them in their practice of Naturopathic Nutritional Therapy.

This course can count towards a naturopathic diploma (ND) and successful graduates can register with the Society of Naturopaths (SoN) as an associate naturopath; with the Federation of Nutritional Therapy Practitioners (FNTP) as a Nutritional Therapist, and as a full member of the Naturopathic Nutrition Association (NNA). Membership of the NNA will also provide associate naturopath status with the General Naturopathic Council (GNC).
