Accreditation of Nutritional Therapy courses

[Larry W]

Hi there,

I need someone's help please!!!!

I really am interested in doing a Nutritional Therapy course, by distance learning. I am getting soooo confused about the accreditation of certain ones and what are recognised.

I have read about the NTC (nutritional therapy council), BANT (british association of nutritional therapy), but then I have come across the FNTP (federation of nutritional therapy practitioners)

However, some courses are accredited by ASET or ODLQC (open and distance learning quality council)

Could any practising Nutritional Advisers let me know what one is best to go for and to to help explain the differences between them??

Many Thanks

Dawn

Personally, I would go down the BANT route. But, thats just me. I have a feeling if Nutrional Therapists are ever recognised by the Govt the way dieticians are then BANT will (hopefully) hold more clout.
