When it comes to diseases we have doctors; when it is about maintaining good health, who can help us? Fitness trainers? Dieticians? Yoga trainers?
Yes, they are all good at their profession; but seldom provides a holistic solution for health. This is where a huge gap is felt in the market. People who are looking for maintaining great health are searching for a one-stop solution. They are fed up with the changing diet plans from atkins to paleo or keto without much of a difference or tired of the HIITs and Cardio exercises as recommended by the trainer or the various nutritional supplements which are being popped in.
This is a unique course designed by doctors and other healthcare professionals in order to meet the high demand of skilled health coaches especially for the Indian healthcare market where lifestyle diseases are alarmingly increasing and the treatment costs are skyrocketing. The certificates are accredited by IAFM(Indian Association of Functional Medicine), the pioneer organization of Functional Medicine doctors and practitioners in India.
