For many years, I have been interested in healthy nutrition in combination with exercising, relaxation and search for balanced and more tranquil life. As a result, I started to look for some self-contained course about nutrition and health. I searched on internet, and courses of Martin Jelínek captured me the most. I liked self-contained and complex orientation, reasonable duration so the student wouldn′t end up as unprepared “fast-track expert”. I also appreciate online form of study and processing of lessons using mind maps and work with ZOF, which I consider to be perfect and recommend it to my daughters as tool for their study. Course exceeded my expectations. I learnt a lot of valuable information about nutrition, supplementation and how to influence certain health problems via nutrition and how to prevent them. Lessons relating Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine were very interesting; such information provide enriching view on nutrition from different perspective. During the whole time, Mr. Jelínek provided friendly, helpful and understandable character to the course. He also professionally answered all questions I had (and his e-mail answers were very quick). Course definitely motivated me to further education in this interesting branch. I started to use gained information in my family and also as consultant.
