Description

The Fitness Professionals Guide to Client Nutrition takes you through the latest evidence-based information about essential nutrition knowledge. A diverse group of students ranging from Personal Trainer’s, athletes, S&C coaches, coaches, those with a passion for fitness and more.

You’ll cover defining a ‘good diet’, a review of global dietary guidelines, all you need to know about carbohydrates and sugars, the latest on dietary fats (including updated views on saturated fats and low-fat diets), how protein functions, and a special look at vegetarian and vegan diets. You’ll also look into micronutrients (vitamins and minerals), water balance and hydration. Plus special topics such as food safety, food labels, eating disorders, and a chapter on dietary assessment (based on a non-diet approach).

We teach nutrition not diets! You’ll hold solid foundation knowledge to make, and share, informed decisions, and you’ll be able to know where to find credible information. We don’t cover every diet known to man, we teach you how to evaluate them past, present and future, a lifelong skill.
