President of the Academy of Functional Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine
The Academy of Functional Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine addresses a critical gap: most healthcare practitioners receive inadequate nutrition training. Medical schools provide only four hours of nutrition education, while alternative practitioners often lack systematic foundations.
Founded by Dr. Datis Kharrazian, a leading expert in functional medicine education, AFNLM provides evidence-based functional nutrition knowledge and practical clinical skills for professionals, while also making clinical nutrition accessible for individuals seeking to optimize their health and their families' wellbeing.
