Description

This course evaluates ten popular weight-loss supplement ingredients (e.g. CLA, EGCG, and xanthines) for safety and efficacy.  However, the course does not just review them for you.  The course teaches trainers the "3-step check" method for assessing consumer, fitness expert, and scientific reports on any supplement.  This method will allow a trainer to find the information that pertains to specific clients and reduce the risk of over/under-estimating the effects a client may expect from a weight-loss supplement.

A student will be able to apply the "3-step check" assessment technique to any supplement.

A student will be able to find consumer, fitness-expert, and scientific reports specific to individual clients.
