Course Description

  • Lifestyle disorders are on the rise, and so is the demand for preventive healthcare professionals who truly understand them. This course takes you deeper into two critical and often-overlooked areas: gastrointestinal disorders and psychosomatic conditions.

  • You'll learn how a well-designed nutritional approach can do more than manage symptoms, it can actively prevent and counter the progression of these conditions.

  • The course goes beyond theory. It focuses on practical application, equipping you to design more effective diet and exercise plans for clients dealing with gastro or psychosomatic disorders.

  • Whether you're a practising fitness coach, a nutrition consultant, or someone looking to genuinely upskill in the preventive healthcare space, this course helps you deliver a more informed, more impactful coaching experience.

  • Learning is delivered through recorded lectures by INFS faculty, supported by discussion forums and quizzes to reinforce your understanding.

  • The duration of the course is 7 weeks, and it is entirely online.

  • Gastrointestinal Pathophysiology: Gain a profound understanding of common and complex GI disorders, including GERD, Peptic Ulcers, Chronic Constipation, and Diarrhea, moving beyond symptom management to root-cause understanding.

  • The Gut-Brain Axis: Master the science of Psychosomatic Disorders, exploring how psychological stress manifests physically in conditions like Asthma, Migraines, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and IBS.

  • Therapeutic Diet Design: Formulate specialized nutritional protocols and ancillary measures tailored specifically to manage inflammation and digestive distress.

  • Food Intolerance Mastery: Develop a clinical approach to identifying and managing food sensitivities and intolerances, creating elimination and reintroduction strategies that work for the individual.

  • Lifestyle Intervention Strategy: Integrate evidence-based lifestyle changes, from exercise variables to stress management, that complement nutritional therapy for holistic recovery.
