I grew up in a family of 9 eating quite ‘traditionally’; cereal and milk for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and ‘meat with 3 veg’ for dinner. If we were lucky, on […]

Taking the time to study with The Nutrition Academy is definitely something I am glad I did. Having followed Cyndi for years and done several of her programs, I knew that her approach to Functional Nutrition would be something I would gain value from and wanted to know more about. The course challenged me to […]

I would highly recommend the Nutrition Academy Functional Nutrition and Applied Functional Nutrition courses to anybody interested in health. For those of us who recognise that the standard dietary guidelines are not necessarily the best for health, these courses give a good foundation and wide variety of knowledge. I know I have already implemented some […]

I can’t recommend The Nutrition Academy highly enough! The modules covered, the variety of information within those modules, expert interviews, and the relevance of the course content to our lives and health is what I have loved. The assessments are interesting, the support is incredible, and the feeling of empowerment out the other side is […]

I have nothing but praises to sing of this course. It is thorough, holistic, and helpful in so many areas. It has opened up my eyes further and provided me with more knowledge on my own healing journey. It has also inspired me to become a functional nutritionist, registering my business ‘Soil2Soul Functional Nutrition’ so […]

It opens your mind to vitalism and your innate immune system. Best of all it provides diet-based solutions that can improve your quality of life and that […]

The course taught me to think critically, and be curious when it comes to health and wellness, and to take a vitalistic approach in all areas. I […]

I want to start by saying how much I have learned from the Functional Nutrition Programme, it was eye opening, it changed my relationship with food, and it gave me a better understanding to my body by learning about vitalism; that our body has its own ‘innate intelligence’ and it functions as a whole system […]
