He went from six medications and declining health to 50lbs lighter, medication-free, and fully alive again. That transformation gave me my purpose.
We made Food Matters, then Hungry for Change, and as my father's healing deepened into meditation, breathwork, & the science of belief, we made Transcendence.
Each film deepened our understanding of healing — and we couldn't keep it to ourselves.
This certification is how you make that same leap.
Many of the experts you just watched in Transcendence teach inside this program — giving you the knowledge, credentials, and tools to turn inspiration into your career, your practice, or your own healing journey.
We built this so you don't have to figure it out alone.

– Carol W., Food Matters Student
Yes - many of the experts you saw in Transcendence teach inside this program, including Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr Joe Dispenza, Marie Forleo, Bruce Lipton, and more. The certification is the in-depth education behind the documentary.
Immediately. As soon as you enrol, everything is unlocked and ready to go.
The program has 23 modules across 3 pillars. At around 5 hours per module, you can complete the entire program in under 6 months - studying on weekends, after work, or whenever suits you. You can also choose guided study emails over 3, 6, or 12 months to help you stay on track.
No - and that's intentional. The Food Matters Nutrition Certification is built on the principle of bio-individuality: the understanding that no single diet works for every body, every life stage, or every goal.
You'll explore a wide range of dietary approaches - plant-based, paleo, keto, raw foods, pescatarian and more - learning the science and strengths behind each. The program leans toward a predominantly plant-based foundation, because the evidence for eating a wide variety of whole plant foods is compelling. But you'll also learn how to ethically incorporate quality animal products, which matters when you're supporting clients with different values and needs.
What you'll walk away with isn't a rigid food philosophy. It's the foundational knowledge to understand why different approaches work, when to apply them, and how to guide yourself or others toward what works right now - because that changes throughout life.
Yes. Most people who join want answers, not a career change. If you’re tired of conflicting advice and want to finally understand your body and your family's health, this was built for you.
This builds understanding progressively - no extremes, no fear-based rules. Most students describe it as the first time nutrition has actually clicked.
Yes. The curriculum covers gut health, the gut-brain axis, hormones, inflammation, food labelling and much more - taught by qualified practitioners and grounded in evidence-based research.
Not at all. You’ll learn how to reduce inflammation at home, support your children's health through food, and navigate your own hormones, practically and without overwhelm.
Yes. Complete the lessons and score 80% or higher on each quiz, and you’ll earn:
Yes. You’ll graduate with real, globally recognised credentials:
You’ll be equipped to work as a nutrition coach or consultant, offering 1:1 coaching, group programs, workshops, or digital products. Many graduates integrate their credentials into existing roles in fitness, allied health, or content creation. You’ll also have the practical tools to attract clients and build a business doing what you love.
No - and we want to be upfront about that. This program qualifies you to work as a nutrition coach or wellness professional. It does not make you a state-registered dietitian or licensed nutritionist. We recommend checking local licensing requirements before offering services professionally.
Many of our most successful students are in their 40s, 50s, and beyond. Life experience makes the learning richer - and the purpose behind it even stronger.
Many of our graduates came from corporate careers or years of full-time parenting and built thriving practices from this foundation. You don’t need a health background - you need curiosity, lived experience, and the willingness to learn.
Ongoing live chat, email, and text support throughout your studies. You’ll also start with a 1:1 kickoff call with course founder Laurentine. Support continues after you graduate, and you get lifetime access to all future updates.
Just a computer or tablet, a reliable internet connection, and a standard web browser. All templates are provided in accessible formats - nothing complicated.
Yes. Choose a monthly payment plan or a one-time payment - see pricing on this page. All major cards and PayPal are accepted. Your access is instant regardless of which option you choose.
We offer a money-back guarantee. If within 14 days it’s not the right fit, contact our team and we’ll refund you in full. No questions asked.
Live chat with us directly on this page, contact us or book a call with the course founder. We’re real people who want to help you make the right decision.
