During my 25 years working as a physician, health coach, teacher and speaker, I realized that there is a large discrepancy in knowledge base about how the body functions between professionals and lay people. You may say to yourself, "Well of course there is- they are the experts." Why do we accept this? Wouldn't I be more effective as a physician and health coach if my clients really had a good grasp on their own physiology ? I began, as part of my coaching program, to teach my clients about physiology, pathology anatomy and pharmacology. The results were astounding. They were actually able to master these concepts and apply them to their own health! That's when I came up with the idea to design a course to empower people by teaching them about how their bodies really work. And so, The Wellness Course was born.

This first course will give you the basic knowledge that you will need to improve your health through proper nutrition, exercise, supplementation and emotional balance. Every section will begin with a physiology lesson to better understand how the body should work when its functioning normally. This will be followed by a section on the pathology, or disease states, to show how the normal function is altered when the normal physiology is affected by disease or inflammation. The last section will then give detailed instructions on how to reverse the altered physiology to normal and how to maintain that normality moving forward. Each section will conclude with a quiz on what you have learned in that section.

Because most of you are not doctors or nurses, some of this material may seem complex. My advise- Take Your Time- each section was designed to take about a week to really grasp. I recommend that you read through it, then watch the videos and then read it again. Repeat it as many times as you need to really grasp it. The purpose of this course is for you to learn for yourself, so there is no rush. Really learn it and master it. I will be constantly adding new content, so be sure to check the additional content section periodically.

Upon completion of the course you will receive a certificate which will verify that you completed all of the sections. As I develop more courses, you will be able to use these certificates towards becoming a health coach so that you can share your knowledge with others and earn some extra money while doing it.

The human body is the most complex machine in the world. It needs to be cared for properly in order for it to keep running smoothly as we age. Once you grasp these concepts, you will posses them forever! What could be better then being able to master your own health?

I hope that you enjoy this course as much as I did designing it!

In Good Health,

Dr Richard Lucente
