James Colquhoun – The Food Matters Nutrition Certification Program
Are You Ready to Take the Next Step on Your Wellness Journey?
Studying nutrition changed my life. It helped me cut through the confusion of paleo, veganism, plant-based, intermittent fasting, and more to experience lasting energy, vitality, and improved immunity.
It gave me the tools and knowledge to help heal my father, successfully getting him off six medications, losing over 50lbs, and completely recovering his life and health. Being a part of this transformation also gave me the inspiration and confidence to start Food Matters.
This laid the groundwork for starting an online movement that has inspired millions worldwide.
Unfortunately, we aren’t taught about real nutrition in school. We have a medical profession that is rarely trained to use food as medicine, and the multi-billion dollar fast-food and pharmaceutical industries thrive on misleading consumers.
Now it’s time to take our power back!
Are You Tired of Feeling Like This?
- You’re overwhelmed by the amount of conflicting ‘evidence’ online on the best diet for you.
- You’re struggling with uncomfortable bloating, hormonal imbalances, constant digestive issues, and unexplained weight gain even though you live a healthy lifestyle.
- You’re spending lots of time and money on specialist appointments, only to be sent off to get tests that cost you hundreds more.
- You have no option but to live with an illness because you’ve tried every option out there and still find yourself unwell and unhappy.
- You don’t have the credibility to be taken seriously by friends and family when it comes to health and wellness.
- You’re ready to say goodbye to persistent sickness and pain, and transform your life using nutrition.
This is why we created the Food Matters Nutrition Certification Program. To alleviate the overwhelm and hours spent seeking support, to help you transform your health and life, and help others do the same.
