Course overview

Holistic sports nutrition is the art of providing your clients with all their nutritional requirements for optimum training or sporting achievement. It achieves this aim with regard to the all-round health of the individual, rather than getting results regardless of the cost.  Healthy food choices rather than supplementation is the preferred way to achieve goals.
