Within my work that is also my hobby I am engaged in writing articles about nutrition, exercising and personal development. I am in touch with many fitness trainers and nutritional advisors. Unfortunately, besides real professionals there are also people, who participated two-weekends training and their knowledge, approach to clients and monotonous diet plans without taking respect to individuality correspond to that. That provoked me to get more information, but in a different way. I decided to find a course that would help me to organize information in my mind and see nutrition without prejudice. I was looking for a course that wouldn′t provide just certificate, but real education and relevant information. I heard about courses of experienced nutritional professional Mgr. Martin Jelínek. When I read information about course and references of its graduates, I knew that was it. I enrolled and I have never regretted. After finishing the course, I made the first menu of my life within seminar paper, even though one month before end of course I was scared of that. Creation of menus became my hobby. I am looking forward to participate in further courses of Martin Jelínek, because I think that this course was just a beginning. I am sure that if anybody wants to be really good nutritional advisor, even on the level of “hobby”, he or she has to constantly study. What did I appreciate the most on the course? First of all, holistic approach to nutrition and lecturer′s effort to lead students to use their knowledge and common sense when creating diet plans. He also led us to create personalized diet plans for each client – to take blood group, health problems, thermical effect or acid-base effect of foods on human organism into account. I also appreciate form of study – using mind maps within processing the lessons. This way, I learnt a lot and monthly test are great help. It forces me to study regularly. I am also grateful for chance to unlimitedly use Advisory center for students and graduates, where Mr. Jelínek answers our questions. I would like to thank him for great information and approach to students.
