Studyingnutrition gave me the tools and knowledge to help heal my father, who went from being on 6 medications, overweight, and unhappy to the healthiest and happiest version of himself that he had ever been, ditching the medications, losing over 50lbs, and restoring his life and health.
These experiences laid the groundwork for starting Food Matters Institute- an online movement inspiring people all over the world to learn how to care for their bodies, heal them, and help heal others.
This program is just what I needed to build my knowledge and confidence for starting my online business in the health and wellness space. The curriculum is so well designed and the content is amazing! Thank you Food Matters Institute for the life changing education!!
I am a physical therapist and I work in an integrative therapy group, and am just finishing my yoga teacher training. I wanted to learn more about nutrition and the best way to optimize patient outcomes. By putting the right food and nutrition into our bodies, it can make you want to feel better.

We've spent the last 15 years studying nutrition and interviewing experts in food, natural medicine, and mind-body therapies to uncover what's transforming lives today. We helped my father heal from depression chronic fatigue and come off six prescription medicines with this information, and it's only becoming more powerful. The method of healing and good health hasn't changed.
When I started the Program, I was doing so to heal my own chronic illness. I was blown away by the amount of information that was provided and have discovered so many ways to improve my health. One thing that has surprised me the most is where my studies have taken me! I have used the knowledge I have gained to create Chronic Illness Healing Workbooks for mental and physical health, and I hope to help and inspire others struggling with their health to make changes and see improvements.
I studied medicine in the 1980s and took 36 courses until I graduated, but none of it was about nutrition. It was not by chance but by purpose. As we know, often behind governments (including universities and medical schools) are the big pharmaceutical companies trying to promote their poisons. I got invaluable knowledge from this course, much of which I assimilated immediately... It helped me reinforce the knowledge I already had and also added some extremely important new information so that I could heal myself and my loved ones with natural methods. The study does not stop here. In fact, now it begins...
I loved every minute of the training, and am grateful for the support of the Food Matters tribe: the awesome, responsive staff, and the savvy, passionate students. The experience was like a fire hose of information, so I'm really happy that all of the course materials are available for me to go back and review again and again. All of the Resources at the end of each module are also really helpful. I'm eager now to jump into the Bonuses and learn how to parlay my newfound knowledge into a business so I can help others live their healthiest, most vibrant lives possible. Thank you!!!
I'm so pleased to have participated in, and finished this wonderful course! It took a bit longer than I initially planned, however as I began each module it seemed very timely with family members' health issues. I thoroughly enjoyed sharing what I learned and hope/plan to do more of this in the future. Thank you so much! With appreciation to everyone involved in the Food Matters Program.
I am thrilled to see my name on the certificate! This has been such a rewarding experience and a game changer! I am excited to apply this knowledge in my daily life. Some of it I have already started like participating in the gluten free challenge (feeling great about that too). I recommend this course to everyone who follows Food Matters! Thank you to the FM team! I absolutely love you guys.
I'm so excited of completing the program and getting the certificate! Thank you soooo much Food Matters Institute for providing such a huge amount of useful information and for giving us a chance in this field! Next step: to apply for the membership and insurance and start working as a nutritional coach!

This means our graduates qualify for membership and insurance through IICT under the Nutrition Consultant modality.
The content within this program doesn't adhere to any one specific diet or way of eating, and this is because we believe in bio-individuality and that there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to nutrition and health. The program emphasizes consuming a primarily plant-based diet because there is strong evidence for the benefits of consuming a large variety of plant-based foods. There is content discussing how to ethically include quality animal products in your diet for those who choose to (or for those who find themselves coaching clients who choose to).
Ultimately we focus on giving students a deep understanding of the foundations required for optimal health and nutrition and the science behind food, nutrition, and many of the key systems in the body. We believe that once you have this foundational knowledge, it's much easier to interpret and implement information on health and nutrition!
