This advanced online diet and metabolism diploma is accredited by the CPD service and by studying this course you will be able to advise your clients on why some people eat and eat but do not put on weight, whilst others eat a bit of food and struggle to keep the weight off. Diet Specialist has helped thousands of people to lose weight using this system and now you can do the same. Do you want to:

  1. Learn about metabolism to improve your health and the health of your family?
  2. Advise others on how to improve their diet and get paid for it?

If yes, then this is the course for you.

In this course you will first learn about the science of metabolism and understand how the liver, kidneys, body substances, pituitary and thyroid glands affect our metabolism. Then you will learn how to increase your metabolic rate by going through the step by step process of building a metabolic rate client.

We will teach you how to start advising clients in your own metabolic rate clinic and how to keep your clients motivated. What do you do with clients who are not losing weight, what information should you record for each of your clients, what venue should you choose for your client and how do market your clinic and convert leads in sales. All of this will be taught in this easy to understand course.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
