Studying at IHN was a great launching point for achieving my dreams of running an integrative care clinic focusing on women’s health & functional nutrition.

IHN was the most incredible experience for me. Although I was enrolled during the pandemic, and had most of my classes online, the teachers, staff, and students were supportive and motivating. Each course instructor had such a passion for what they were teaching, and I always felt seen during my time at IHN. I graduated feeling confident and ready to help others which was the most incredible feeling!

Kristin Kowal, CNP Graduate

Being an IHN graduate has honoured my career in so many ways, including the respect of the industry, the incredible knowledge base and the connections I’ve made through the college. The reason I am a nutritionist is to support clients with complex health issues, get results and be part of their journey back to health.   There is no better feeling than celebrating the newfound joy of a client that feels better.

Jillian Maierhofer, CNP Graduate

IHN provided an open and community-orientated experience which introduced me to the world of holistic health. I consider the education I received to be the foundation of knowledge I’ve built my practice from and continue to expand.

The practicum placement was a wonderful opportunity to immerse myself into the field of holistic health and attain my first employed position as a Certified Nutritionist.

Amber Baker, CNP Graduate

The course content at IHN is structured to train students to ask and address the questions rarely, if ever asked in conventional medicine. What are the sources and origins of the symptoms being experienced? What needs to be “removed” before we add? What is the body trying to tell us through it’s responses? What foods, toxins or deficiencies are throwing the body out of balance and into dis-ease?

Farida Visram, CNP Graduate

Tazim Mawanu, CNP Graduate

I have always been a health advocate starting with my career as a Physician to becoming a Holistic Nutritionist, and I firmly believe there is a place for both Conventional Medicine and Holistic Healing. After going through many health challenges and when Conventional Medicine wasn’t cutting it, I found the perfect place to deepen my knowledge and understanding beyond the physical approach. The Institute of Holistic Nutrition was, and continues to be, my awakening and inspiring source to Body, Mind, and Soul.

With over 30 years of experience in the corporate world (in the field of engineering/IT), after discovering my love for Holistic Nutrition, I finally felt like IHN was where I was supposed to be – a place that would allow me to combine my passion and profession at last. Our dedicated, well-qualified instructors with years of industry experience under their belt created the perfect learning environment, optimizing each student’s learning potential. The combination of well-selected assignments, exams and case studies really helped us understand concepts and prepare us for their practical application. This program has taught me the importance of loving our bodies. Our bodies are designed to heal themselves – they just need to be given the right tools to work their miracles. These years at IHN have been eye-opening and transformative.
