The web-site is so vague I can't tell what they mean by holistic nutrition.

I think I know people involved in this program, and I'm sure they generally offer good advice. I need more information.

Some red flags here:

Ex. Detox, Homeopathy ...

There are definitely some aspects of the CSNN program that are red flag worthy, but there is also a lot of great education within the program. Not all Nutritionists believe in homeopathy/detox and merely assuming they are quacks is just showing a person's bias.

Nutritionists who adhere to their school education and training are not allowed to:
- Diagnose
- Use these terms in their client case studies: Heal, Cure, Treat, Prevent, Diagnose
- They cannot call their clients patients.

I also know of nutritionists who work hand in hand with doctors. Together, as a team, they come up with a plan to address what is ailing someone. A good nutritionist will always accept that medicine/science has a place in healing many individuals, and their goal is not to remove that.
