AYURVEDIC NUTRITION
100-Hour Certification Course
Ayurvedic Nutrition CERTIFICATION
Online, LIVE & Self Paced
According to Ayurveda food, is just as powerful as medicine. In fact, there is a sloka (writings of the ancient texts of Ayurveda) that says “food is medicine when consumed properly.” If we eat foods uniquely suited to our physiology and follow a sattvic (life supporting) routine that enhances digestion, our bodies will reap the benefits and we will find that our days will be happier, healthier and filled with real vitality — at any age.
Ayurvedic Nutrition is a comprehensive 100-hour course designed for anyone who is interested in learning more about nutrition through the lens of Ayurveda. Students engage in comprehensive content and are provided with all the tools needed to make detailed lifestyle & dietary changes for themselves or for their clients.
Students will be able to recommend or prescribe the appropriate food choices and proper eating behaviors (āhāravidhi) in accordance with the prakṛti (individual constitution), vikṛti (pathological condition), guṇas (qualities), rasa (taste), season (ṛtu), digestive strength (agnibala) and age (vaya) of the patient.
Students will be able to demonstrate the selection and preparation of appropriate foods and spices according to prakṛti (individual constitution), guṇas (qualities), rasa, season (ṛtu), digestive strength (agnibala) and age, and demonstrate proper eating behaviors (āhāravidhi).
