When Cyndi announced Changing Habits would be offering a nutrition course we jumped at the chance. This was our opportunity to learn how nutrition nurtures the body and how we could keep ourselves and our families healthy utilising a vitalistic approach. This was not a career decision as we are both entrenched in our own professions however it gives us an avenue to keep in good health, particularly for the different stages of life we are at – One – starting a new, young family with a good, healthy start in life, and Two – keeping healthy and active into retirement.
Doing the course together meant we could discuss ideas and help each other progress. Although most of the time we worked at our own pace we would often seek out how the other was doing and where they were up to. It was good to know that if either of us needed to bounce an idea we were there for each other.
Because the course is online you can work at your own pace and the Changing Habits staff are helpful and always just an email or phone call away for any queries. There is also a closed Facebook page for students to share ideas, information and questions. The lessons contain interesting videos and internet activities, plus suggested readings for those who would like to explore a topic further. The Changing Habits Nutrition course now known as The Functional Nutrition Course is a great way to learn about vitalism, good health and nutrition.

Are you ever so hungry that you find yourself swallowing such huge bites that it feels physically uncomfortable? That`s a great sign to take an opportunity to slow down. A feeling of forcefulness when swallowing, pain in your chest, needing to cough or having to drink water between bites are all signs it`s time to slow down!
It is the great pleasure of Cyndi and everyone at The Nutrition Academy office to take students on this learning journey. Interested in learning more? Check out all of our courses at The Nutrition Academy.

A flat butt is the least of the consequences of chronically under consuming protein. As we show in this video, the list of benefits of eating protein goes on and on. And as Cyndi says, if you aren`t seeing the benefits of eating protein when you`re eating enough, consider what your body needs to be able to process nutrients properly.
