Primal Certification, Expert Knowledge

A decade ago, if you would have told me that I'd be advising people on their diet and lifestyle for both a hobby and a living, I would've smiled, nodded, and walked away thinking you were a nutcase. In fact, when Camille saw me consistently obsessing on the Paleo diet several years ago, she told me I should think about becoming a nutritionist. I smiled, nodded, and... well... I'd better not write the rest of this sentence...

However, here I am, doing exactly that - advising friends, family, acquaintances and clients on how to lose weight, lower their cholesterol, and improve their health easily and naturally. I've seen positive results with every single person (repeat: EVERY SINGLE PERSON) who had the desire to change their unhealthy habits and adopt a Paleo template. Still, there was something lacking. I already had adequate knowledge and experience to impart to those that would listen, however, there was no real mechanism for credibility in the ancestral health arena, apart from getting an MD and then rebuking standard medical practices.

Until now.

After searching many different avenues to try and obtain the additional knowledge and proper credentials to back up what I'm preaching, I found absolutely nothing that adequately suited my desire to speak to the masses about the science, logic, principles, and benefits of ancestral health. All of the programs that I found were either on-line degrees advocating conventional nutritional wisdom, or health/life-coaching courses. All were overpriced, non-specific and vaguely relevant at best.

And then came Mark Sisson's Primal Blueprint Expert Certification program. At last, Sisson took it upon himself to assemble the most current, specific, in-depth knowledge, scientific studies, proven concepts and recommendations relative to ancestral living. It is truly similar to an advanced level college course that starts with a fascinating bit of archaeology, laying the foundation of our ancient human biology. He then proceeds through explanations of biological processes that help you understand how and why ancestral living benefits us. The program then continues through all of the tenets of the Primal Blueprint, and why they are essential. Overall, the course was exactly what it professes to be - excellent knowledge for optimal living. For those with an interest, you should definitely take it. Be warned, however, that the tests (there are a total of 13 modules, each with it's own test to make sure you understand the Key Concepts and Action Items) are not overly difficult, but certainly NOT easy. But then, nothing worthwhile comes easy, right?
