MODULE 1: NUTRITION FUNDAMENTALS 
This module introduces you to a different approach to food and eating. For too long, we’ve used food as a tool to achieve specific goals based on measurements by counting calories and weighing food to achieve an optimal weight. In this course, you’ll explore a new perspective—that food is a source of life- and health-sustaining nutrients, and that its purpose is to nourish all physical and mental aspects of your health.

MODULE 2: HEALTHY EATING IN THE REAL WORLD 
In this module, you will learn how to integrate the teachings from Module 1 into real-world settings. You will learn healthy meal preparation and cooking short-cuts, what to eat at a restaurant or when you’re on the run, and how-to super-charge meals with nutrients to get the most out of your food. Labels and other interventions designed to help you and your clients make healthy eating choices will be explored.

MODULE 3: BETTER DIGESTION, BETTER HEALTH 
You aren’t just what you eat—you are what you absorb. An underactive digestive system generally results in the poor absorption of nutrients, and long-term malabsorption can lead to chronic health problems. In this module, you’ll learn how the digestive system works and why problems can so easily arise, leading to constipation, heartburn and indigestion, or chronic illnesses of the digestive tract. You’ll also learn how these concerns may be prevented with food and behavioral interventions.

MODULE 4: FINDING A BALANCE – STRESS & DIET 
Stress can take a toll on your health, and that toll can have lifelong consequences. This module explores the physiological implications stress has on your health, and the various foods, nutrients, and other interventions that can help your body cope with or recover from long-term stress.
