Do you work in the healthcare space? Are you looking to expand your skills?

In this week’s podcast episode, I sat down with Candice Egnos, Project Director of the Nutrition Network - an offshoot of the Noakes Foundation - to explore their incredible mission of training and certifying medical professionals in the safe and effective use of low-carb and ketogenic dietary interventions to treat metabolic and mental health conditions. With over 10,000 practitioners trained across 100+ countries, they are leaders in this educational space.

The timing of this podcast interview works amazingly well because it falls over their Black Friday sale which offers up to 75% off their certification courses. These courses are ideal for health coaches, nurses, nutritionists, dieticians, doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists, etc.

While the Nutrition Network recognizes that low-carb and ketogenic dietary interventions are just one of many strategies to support health outcomes, they strongly advocate for medical professionals to understand the science behind these approaches and acquire the skills to apply them when appropriate. It is becoming a critical core competency patients seek from their healthcare providers.

Episode Highlights:

• The vision behind Nutrition Network and its roots in the Noakes Foundation.
• Why therapeutic carbohydrate reduction is a game-changing tool for treating metabolic disorders.
• Courses tailored for everyone—from health coaches to dietitians to medical doctors.
• Insights into their globally recognized certifications, including a rigorous 16-week live mentorship program.
• The importance of personalized approaches to nutrition—no dogma, just results.
• Free resources, curated research, and a vibrant practitioner community.

Whether you're a medical professional, on the path of recovery from metabolic syndrome, or simply curious about TCR (Therapeutic Carbohydrate Reduction), this episode is packed with valuable insights and actionable steps.
