Testimonials

The CISN course has brought a new perspective to my practice and has opened new possibilities in my career as a functional nutritional therapist. Initially, the reason I signed up was to have more expertise to help my athletic clients, but the course has taught me more than I expected. It has helped me develop an integrative understanding of the individual from a nutritional perspective.

Vanessa Buccheim, Nutritional Therapist

You have created an open and flexible course with so much rich material. I’m also loving the different backgrounds of class members – some with no sporting education experience, like me, and others with limited nutrition experience – that is great to have together. It’s really beyond what I was hoping for.

Patricia Shelton, Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist & Owner of Shelton Nutrition

Over the years that I have been involved with Ian Craig, I have found that the courses he has personally produced or presented have always been based on good science, they are very informative and are of consistently very high quality. Just as importantly, the information provided has been understandable and of practical, real world use.

Paul K Ehren, Master bodybuilder and personal health and fitness consultant/ functional nutrition practitioner

When I first met Ian, he made an instant impact; partly because of his depth of understanding, but also because of his approach to enhancing sports performance alongside optimising health. All too often in the field of sports nutrition, strategies are focused on performance goals: the approach of CISN is truly integrated, encompassing every aspect of health, including nutrition, psychology and lifestyle.

Alessandro Ferretti, Nutritional Therapist and owner of Equilibria Health Ltd

Ian recently hosted a series of webinars for Human Kinetics and the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences; all four of them were extremely popular with our database of exercise scientists, coaches, athletes and nutritionists. As well as being extremely knowledgeable about integrative sports nutrition, Ian was a delight to work with.
