  Enroll in Course

A revolutionary course designed to ignite change in food thinking.

Help your clients live their best expression. The Genomic Kitchen Professional course provides in-depth insights into the nutrition science and educational strategies that make the concept of Culinary Genomics both revolutionary and essential to health professionals.

In this course, you will gain an understanding of the fundamentals of nutrigenomics and culinary genomics and how to use them in education and counseling in the private practice, community or institutional setting. This course will introduce you to the extensive evidence-based science behind the Genomic Kitchen's M.I.S.E. ingredient toolbox and how its ingredients optimize information for human genes, human health and longevity. Learn how food-gene interactions can influence and mitigate oxidative stress, inflammation, detoxification (biotransformation), immune response and key biochemical processes in the body. With nutrition science in hand, discover how to work with key ingredients in the kitchen to optimize the information they provide to genes and subsequently health.

Throughout the course learn how to translate nutrigenomics and culinary applications for the public in comprehensive and actionable ways, with or without genomic test information.

Parallel to the science, we review relevant components of the public Genomic Kitchen course and supporting educational materials to enhance your understanding of how we're teaching the public about genes and genomics, why we're teaching it  and some of the questions they may have for you.

As professionals, you also receive our signature nutrition education roadmap visuals that support learning and counseling. Detailed scientific references accompany course visuals, and an extensive supplemental reading guide is also included. This course also presents options to teach this program live in your community, or refer your clients to our online program. Take this course if you are interested in learning about the basics of nutrigenomics and how you can apply them today with your clients.
