Nutritional Therapist Courses

Nutritional Therapists help clients understand the relationship between their diet and health. They create individualised menus and eating plans, teach clients how to prepare and store foods for optimal nutritional value, and prepare educational information about using nutrition to combat various illnesses and diseases.

As a Nutritional Therapist you could be designing a client questionnaire to obtain dietary and lifestyle information, working with a client to reduce their cholesterol and blood sugar, recommending ingredients and nutritional supplements to a client, educating a client about lifestyle and exercise, updating client records, calculating the nutritional value of a recipe, or attending a conference for nutrition professionals.

To succeed in this occupation you will need a genuine interest in the scientific value and structure of food, as well as the desire to help people achieve greater health and wellness.
