We developed this advanced certification because of questions we get all the time at The Health Sciences Academy, like:
(Yes, we get questions like these even from medical doctors and university-trained dietitians and nutritionists).
Questions like these inspired us to bring practical science directly to those who want to help clients with their gut health in the right way.
This advanced training is our combined know-how in gut health, the microbiome, and molecular nutrition.
If you want to help your client identify what may be contributing to unwanted gut symptoms, we believe you need to understand the science of nutrition, metabolism, digestion, and the microbiome.
So how do you do it?
Fortunately, that’s exactly what you’re about to learn.
Did you know that more than 40% of the population worldwide suffers from digestive symptoms?
…And many of these individuals may not even know what’s contributing to their feeling bloated, stomach discomfort, abdominal pain, gastrointestinal cramps, diarrhoea, or constipation.
While some may just suffer through their symptoms, others may be unnecessarily removing entire food groups from their diet out of fear of a sensitivity.
And this can actually increase risk for more symptoms because they may be lacking essential vitamins and minerals!
This means that gut restoration nutritional advisors must gain a profound, science-based insight that they can use to help clients PROFICIENTLY. Particularly if they want to stand out and be leaders in this field.
This scientific insight includes being able to assess someone’s unique food sensitivities and nutritional needs.
That's where YOU can make a difference.
When you become a certified Advanced Gut Restoration Nutritional Advisor, you’ll know how to custom build personalised 4-step gut restoration programs based on proven scientific methods..
…and you’ll be able to confidently address issues and answer questions such as:
70 units • 90 CPD hours • videos • workbooks
Get evaluation tools to personalise programs
You’ll get our entire scientific framework to custom-build gut restoration plans… including client assessments with action steps, planners, trackers, food charts, and checklists to use in your practice. This way, no one will doubt your competence in this space ever again!
Discover the science behind factors contributing to poor gut health
Learn to help a client repair their gut and maintain their new gut health for the long-term
We’ll show you how to perform health risk assessments to evaluate levels of gut discomfort, and whether certain foods such as high-fat, high-sugar, high-salt, processed, gluten-containing foods may be exacerbating gut symptoms.
You’ll also learn how to help your client keep a food and symptoms diary, and how you can analyse it. In this way, you can evaluate which nutritional factors may be contributing to their symptoms, and track how their symptoms improve over their program with you.
Once you complete your training, you’ll also understand that our genetic makeup may play a role in our gut health, but that daily choices have a larger influence.
Build a personalised 4-step gut restoration program
The 4R program is a commonly used strategy for restoring gut health, and various practitioners already use it.
However, it is not always implemented effectively!
In this certification, we’ll be delving into the science and using the latest research, in order to maximise this program’s potential.
You’ll also be receiving the practical tools, assessments, trackers, to help you give your client the tools they need to support their gut health.
By the end of this training, you’ll be able to build a personalised 4-step gut restoration program considering an individual’s own triggers to:
Support a client through a food elimination and reintroduction
You’ll also be provided with all the necessary tools to help a client through a food elimination, reintroduction, rotation diet while limiting potential nutrient deficiency risks.
This includes the following practical tools:
3 BONUS Modules included!
Your first Bonus Module summaries the science of 8 different gut conditions: GERD, gastritis, coeliac disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, IBS, and haemorrhoids. You’ll also be provided with the Digestive Doctor Visit Guide™ so your client can get the most out of a visit to their gastroenterologist or other medical doctors.
Your second Bonus Module examines 7 different digestive cancers: oesophageal cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, gallbladder cancer, small bowel cancer, colorectal cancer. It also includes a guide to help a client when visiting an oncologist: the Guide for Visiting an Oncologist™.
While you CANNOT diagnose or attempt to diagnose medical conditions, prescribe treatment, dispense, or replace a doctor’s advice, you CAN work in collaboration with a medical doctor and help them to prepare for a visit to a medical doctor in regards to their digestive symptoms.
Your third Bonus Module investigates microbiome testing, examining the latest science in this new area, how do we know which strains of bacteria are in our own guts? And in what ratios? A number of companies claim to be able to answer these questions and provide information from disease risks to specifically tailored diet plans. But do these companies’ claims stand up to scrutiny, or are they promising too much?
