NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER
Your life is happening right now. Now is the time to take action toward accomplishing your dreams and aspirations. Our team is available to talk, listen, and prepare you for a powerful education that will open new and exciting opportunities. Joshua Rosenthal, MScEd Founder, Director And Primary Teacher
The world is in a vulnerable place right now. The standard diet of processed, chemicalized foods is a global issue being discussed everywhere from local councils to government cabinets.
Welcome to the Future of Nutrition
Fast food can be found in every corner of the globe and countries once fighting hunger are now fighting an obesity epidemic. Solutions come in a prescription bottle or through surgery.
Our mission is to play a crucial role in improving health and happiness, and through that process, create a ripple effect that transforms the world.
But there are signs of change. It’s slow, but there is a revolution happening. A health revolution. Awareness around food and health issues is coming to light through documentaries and public campaigns. Nutrition-focused topics dominate magazine covers and on the news. Farmers’ markets are now a staple in most neighborhoods. We are waking up to reality and taking back control of our health.

I have a goal for the year 2020: to have the world see clearly, with 20/20 vision, that food changes everything. For over 20 years, we have educated students on the vital importance of true nourishment. In turn, Integrative Nutrition Health Coaches have gone on to educate tens of thousands more people. Together, we are creating a ripple effect that is bringing health and happiness to the world. As you read through this curriculum guide, I invite you to imagine how the education and training at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition can help you reinvent your life. Health and happiness are inextricably linked. The better you feed yourself, the bigger the impact you can have on the world.

GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS
The world needs Health Coaches Rates of preventable chronic illnesses are skyrocketing around the world. There’s a huge demand for a new kind of health professional – the Health Coach.
THE GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS Mark Hyman, MD
Integrative Nutrition Health Coaches are trained to educate and support people to find their way to better health. Health coaching is poised to make a real difference in fighting the global health crisis.
Chairman of the Institute for Functional Medicine Integrative Nutrition Visiting Teacher Cardiovascular disease is responsible for 34% of all deaths in Australia.1
75% of Americans have at least one nutritional deficiency.2
1 in 5 people in the United Arab Emirates have type 2 diabetes.3
1 in 3 Mexican teenagers are obese.4
34% of Chinese adults have hypertension.5
70% of South African women have unhealthy levels of body fat.6
HOW HEALTH COACHING CAN HELP A review of thirteen studies found that health coaching significantly contributed to weight loss and increased physical activity in overweight patients.7 Patients with diabetes working with a Health Coach achieved significant improvements in blood sugar levels, exercise, stress levels, and overall health.8
“Health Coaches can provide the instruction, the tools, the information, and the facilitation of behavior change that leads to the creation of health instead of the suppression of symptoms or disease.”
Patients with coronary heart disease in a coaching program achieved a significantly greater decrease in total cholesterol.9 In a tobacco cessation study, 32% of patients with Health Coaches quit smoking compared to 18% of people without coaches.10

WHAT IS A HEALTH COACH?
The Health Coaching Revolution A Health Coach is a wellness authority and supportive mentor who helps clients shift their behavior towards healthier habits. Whether the goal is weight loss, improved digestion, stress reduction, or boosted energy, Health Coaches support clients to create sustainable lifestyle change.
Frank Lipman, MD Founder of Eleven Eleven Wellness Center Integrative Nutrition Visiting Teacher
MAKE A LIVING DOING THE WORK YOU LOVE Integrative Nutrition Health Coaches do work that is aligned with their heart. Enjoy a fulfilling career where you can follow your passion for healthy living and transform people’s lives.
Enjoy Unparalleled Career Flexibility Many Health Coaches work in their own private practice and have the flexibility to see clients part-time or full-time, in-person or online, as a supplement to your current income … it’s up to you.
“The success rate at my practice is so much higher now that we have Health Coaches. I see Health Coaches as an essential part of the progression to ‘good medicine.’”
Find a Variety of Employment Options In addition to launching their own practices, our graduates find jobs in doctor’s offices, wellness centers, gyms, and spas. The world needs welltrained professionals to help people take control of their health.
Earn a Generous Income
As awareness shifts towards the importance of preventive care, health coaching fills a void in the current healthcare paradigm. Most doctors lack the time and resources to help patients achieve their wellness goals. By addressing all facets of wellness in addition to diet – relationships, career, physical activity, and spirituality – Integrative Nutrition Health Coaches take a holistic approach to health and help clients find the unique foods and lifestyle that make them feel their best.

Many new graduates charge $100 per hour in their health coaching practices. You can start seeing paying clients while you’re still in school and pay back your tuition before you graduate.
Boost Your Existing Wellness Practice Whether you’re a physician, nurse, yoga instructor, personal trainer, or chef, training as a Health Coach can help you expand your practice and improve your services.

THE HEALTH COACH TRAINING PROGRAM
David Katz, MD Director of Yale Prevention Research Center Integrative Nutrition Visiting Teacher
Transform Your Health The Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) was founded in 1992 by Joshua Rosenthal and is now the largest nutrition school in the world.

THE HEALTH COACH TRAINING PROGRAM
What Feeds Your Hunger for Life? Integrative Nutrition goes way beyond the USDA nutrition guidelines and covers cutting-edge nutrition concepts, alternative medicine, and modern health issues you won’t find in a traditional nutrition program.
Bio-individuality
Superfoods
There’s no one diet for everyone – this is the core principle of the Integrative Nutrition curriculum. Students explore the pros and cons of over 100 dietary theories and learn how to create personalized approaches to food and lifestyle
Learn about the anti-oxidant rich fruits. Certain foods are powerful enough to lower cholesterol, reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, and improve your mood. Learn about the antioxidant rich fruits, vegetables, and whole grains lining the shelves of your health food store.
Deepak Chopra, MD
Deconstructing Cravings Many people believe that cravings are problem, but Integrative Nutrition believes that cravings play a critical role in understanding what the body needs. You will learn how to satisfy and manage these cravings in healthy ways.
Crowding Out
Primary Food At Integrative Nutrition, we have a philosophy about food – everything we consider a source of nutrition is really just a secondary source of nourishment. The foods you eat are secondary to the other aspects of life that feed you. This is what we call primary food. At Integrative Nutrition, we teach you how to improve your own primary food and talk to clients about all aspects of their lives. It’s essential to good health. RELATIONSHIPS You can eat all the broccoli in the world, but the quality of your relationships with family, friends, and coworkers explains a lot about the quality of your life. Cultivate relationships that support your wants and needs.
CAREER Most people spend 8-10 hours a day, five days a week at work. Are you passionate about your job? Do you love who you work with? Finding work you enjoy is essential to living a healthy, balanced life.
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY Our bodies thrive on movement and quickly degenerate without it. Exercise can be simple, such as getting off the subway or bus one stop early. Making physical activity a daily habit greatly increases your health and happiness.
SPIRITUALITY We all search for meaning in our lives, and feeling at one with the world can satisfy that longing. Some people follow their traditional religion of birth while others explore new traditions. Spiritual nutrition can feed us on a very deep level and diminish cravings for the superficial rewards of life.

Organic and Local Foods Discover how organic, non-organic, commercial, and locally sourced meat and produce are different, and learn how farming methods can impact your health and the environment.
Emotional Eating
Most nutrition experts give their clients a list of foods to avoid, which explains why so many people are turned off by nutrition. “Crowding out” involves adding more healthy food to your diet rather than cutting back on foods you enjoy.
Many people try to heal sadness, depression, and anxiety with food; this tactic can easily lead to overeating and unwanted weight gain. Explore the connection between food and emotions.
Energetics of Food
Government Policies
Food has distinct qualities and energetic properties that affect your body depending on where, when, and how it’s grown and prepared. Learn how different foods may affect the way you feel.
Why are unhealthy foods cheaper than healthy foods in the United States? Learn about government subsidies, campaign contributions, and the pros and cons of the USDA’s dietary guidelines.
Food/Mood Connection
Global Health Crisis
Scientific research shows that what we eat affects how we think, feel, and act. Get the tools to deconstruct why you feel a certain way after eating a certain food to find what works best for you.
Rates of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease continue to skyrocket. We spend an exorbitant amount of money on medications and operations, but very little time learning prevention and education. Learn how you can reverse this trend.
Mind-body expert and bestselling author Integrative Nutrition Visiting Teacher

LOUIS VITIELLO, JR ’13 Louis lost more than 200 pounds after being told he would die if he didn’t improve his health. His transformation inspired him to become a Health Coach and create Simple Steps Weight Loss.
Integrative Nutrition’s program gave me the confidence to leave my job, build my dream, be featured on radio and television, and become recognized as an expert in my field. After 13 long years working in information technology, who knew that work could be so much fun and inspiring? I love being a Health Coach, and thank IIN for the amazing life I now live.

ELIZABETH STEIN ’09 Elizabeth created a healthy line of granola, oatmeal, and mixes that is now sold at Whole Foods, Target, Wegmans, Fresh Market, and other major grocery stores.
My goal was simple. I wanted to provide healthier, bettertasting alternatives to what was currently on the market. I was just learning about all these powerful superfoods and realized they weren’t being incorporated into products on the grocery shelf. So I set out to recreate the most delicious food products using these nutrient-rich ingredients. Our goal is to continue to redefine the standards of packaged foods.
