What Our Grads Say
Being a Primal Health Coach already, and meeting many people who have a variety of goals and eating styles, I found that keto was coming up constantly and with a variety of definitions and understandings. It was being used for everything and misused too. That prompted me to apply for the Ketogenic Diet Specialist Certification so that I would have a complete and thorough understanding of keto and could apply it to client's needs. This was a really good course that has all the essential information you need to understand keto and help sort out the various myths, facts, and misunderstandings people have to better coach them. I would do this course again before many other courses because it is so valuable.

This was an outstanding course. It did not disappoint. I had been doing keto intermittently for a couple of years with good success. After taking this course, I have a better understanding of how to apply ketogenic diets as a strategy for health, wellness and healing. The curriculum does a great job of getting into The mechanics and nuances of ketosis and the ketogenic diet. I strongly recommend this course to anyone interested in the keto diet or interested in coaching in the health and wellness space. Once again PHCI delivers another quality program!

The Primal Health Coach Institute changed my life. I was always looking for nutrition courses, especially in keto and primal health. I found the Primal Health Coach Institute, and fell in love with the first course, the Primal Health and Nutrition Expert course, and decided to add the Ketogenic Diet Specialist course. These courses cover everything you need. I am not only changing people's lives now, but also changed my life, thanks to the Primal Blueprint, which is included in the Primal Health and Nutrition Expert Course. I can't thank Primal Health Coach Institute enough.
