“I have been proud to be a member and also a board member for NANP.  This group represents whole food nutrition professionals and chefs.  As a coalition, we can effect more change for sustainable agriculture and organics, while having fun and continuing to learn.  In 2008, I sat for the Board Exam in Holistic Nutrition.  A comprehensive and fair test — not a slam dunk — you’ll feel proud to have passed.  This certification allows graduates from vocational and traditional colleges to be recognized as leaders in the field of holistic nutrition.  I encourage you to get involved with this dynamic group.”
