Introduction

We are living in a world of high pollution and a society of high stress. We need to go even further beyond the nutrition taught by Dr. Fredericks. Foods alone may not contain an adequate amount of nutrients. Compensating for pollution and high stress may require supplementing our diet with nutrients. The vital question is which ones are required for each individual. To answer these questions will require a comprehensive study of biochemistry and nutrition. Nutrition normally deals with absorbing nutrients from the intestinal tack into the bloodstream. This is only the first of two mechanisms that are required. The second and critically essential mechanism is the transport of nutrients into the cells where they are ultimately needed. Without activating under-active membrane transport systems and biochemical pathways, nutrients may not enter the cells, resulting in making expensive urine. In this course, you will cover the basics of nutrition, clinical chemistry, membrane transport systems, and more. Membrane transport systems can make the difference between a nutritional protocol working or not working. Dr. Allocca has developed a protocol for activating membrane transport systems, leading to optimal health. This course is given by distance learning only. You will receive the textbook, and a final examination. You will receive a certification of completion upon passing the final examination.
