PRC Elective: Chinese Dietary Therapy

“I am very happy with this course and positively surprised by the quantity and quality of the materials. It is a very extensive, interestingly explained and well-arranged course.”

“I really enjoyed this course! It provides in-depth information on how to heal patients via food and TCM. Gillian explains very well, so that you don’t even feel you’re studying.”

“What a fantastic course! Extremely well organized and presented, with useful reference materials and an excellent textbook. As an RHN without acupuncture/other TCM training this was an exciting new way of looking at how foods heal.”

“I found the course to be extremely helpful in clarifying what a healthy diet is for specific cases and individuals, giving explanation to why one man’s meat is another man’s poison.”

“Best online course I have ever taken! I am a former chef and am very passionate about the healing powers of food. It was very informative, easy to understand and provided information I can definitely use in my practice.”

“Really impressed with this course, it was my first course taken from PRCO! Most useful was how to approach treatment of patients and the in depth detail of each food property.”

“A very Comprehensive Dietary Therapy course. Online delivery, flexible time frame useful. I’m a mum of two little kids & a practitioner. After maternity leave I wanted to revisit, refresh and review my existing knowledge of TCM Dietary Therapy with the intention to focus on prescribing more dietary therapy in clinic. Very impressed.”

“I loved this course! It make complete sense to me! I’ve been journaling what I’m eating & writing down how I am feeling, mood, energy, etc. It’s been a very eye opening experience for me. My boyfriend and sister are showing big interest in what I am learning and both would like to take it too.”

“Everyone should take this course. It’s a wonderful view of a healthy way to eat.”

“I’m interested in nutrition and have found TCM useful for myself when I’ve had health problems, so I thought it would be interesting to learn for my own personal benefit. It was informative and really interesting, I like that I can go back to re-listen to lessons because I know I haven’t quite grasped the concepts yet.”

“Highest quality, excellent material and informatively delivered. Met my expectations and exceed them.”

“I really enjoyed this course and Gillian’s teaching style. It’s clear she is incredibly knowledgeable and I found the course very engaging. I felt it was a good mix of being very useful for an acupuncturist and it also for the average person who doesn’t have TCM training. I appreciate the guidebook, as well as having lifetime access”

“Very well presented, wonderful presenter/teacher! Everything was useful, but the 10 case examples really put it into practice.”

“I am very interested in diet therapy, and currently completing my Diploma of Acupuncture and it was not included in my coursework. Very impressed with the material and very useful to go through the different health conditions.”

“Excellent especially for someone who doesn’t know much on the matter including non-TCM participants as it gives a great overview of TCM. A knowledgeable professor who is generous with the information she has gathered over 20 years.”

“As a Nurse, I found this course great for my continuing education! Loved the instructors attitude and energy. This course gives tons of practical and applicable knowledge.”

“It was great! Thank you for offering this course; I have been looking for a while to learn more about TCM diet therapy and was very happy that I found this class online.”

“I think [this course] is perfect. I wanted to broaden my TCM knowledge in all possible ways, and the courses at PRCO is a very nice place to do this. Very concentrated, informative and motivating.”

“I really liked it! Lots of useful information. I really enjoyed the format and information presented with the videos and printed material combo and sharing case studies.”

“Gillian is smart, articulate, and I particularly appreciate her compassion for people who may be in wildly different headspaces depending on their health status. Many instructors love to impress with their knowledge of hard-to-find ingredients, so I appreciated the fact that this course is based on food in my grocery store.”

“Top-notch. The material was detailed yet easy to digest, which allowed me to build a foundation in TCM diet therapy that I will explore and apply in a clinical setting.”

“Brilliant work! The course materials surpassed my expectations. Great audio and videos to follow along with. Very easy to understand and follow. Well done, Gillian! Continue sharing your wisdom throughout the world—all the best to you, your students and current/future clients.”

“Life-altering. Loved it! Gillian is amazing! This course has already helped me so much in my own life, and I plan on going through every part multiple times.”

“Excellent. Loved it! I’ve been practicing acupuncture for almost a decade, and this is one of my favourite courses; I can’t wait for the next one.”

“This is a solid introduction to Chinese food therapy; it is well constructed and presented, high-quality teaching. The guidebook and video/audio are very helpful.”

“I appreciated how enthusiastic Gillian was and knowledgeable. Her clinical insights and examples made the material easier to assimilate. Grateful for the program, the ease of the online learning platform and the quality of the videos/recordings and materials “

“Very high quality, I thought it was very nice and informative. The instructor, Gillian, was well-read and an excellent and engaging teacher. I could tell she is passionate about whole food healing! The list of foods on the temperature chart, the grocery store video guide, and the book recommendation at the beginning were some very helpful tools, and the information on the flavours of food was also indispensable!”

“I thought the teachings were of good quality. I enjoyed the class, especially learning how to apply the knowledge to different cases.”

“Excellent course, loved it, highly recommended! Gillian is amazing at explaining concepts.”

“Excellent. Loved it, really engaging and informative.”

“Very informative, very clear. Highly recommend!”

“Excellent, will give anyone with an interest in TCM dietary therapy a good basis to build on. As a TCM practitioner, I think this information should be part of the general TCM course and not only an elective study. This information is important not only from a therapist’s point of view but can also help the layperson understand how they can help maintain their own health.”

“Really enjoyed this course. It covered the basics and was well-taught and presented in a way one could easily understand and apply in their practice or everyday life.”
