A Global Mission
Join our movement
We are on a mission to transform the standard of care in the health and wellness field, by providing health professionals the cutting-edge education on diet and lifestyle to bring to their practice to serve patients and clients. In the world we envision, health professionals will provide patients with information about the benefits of adopting the principles of The Wahls Protocol® in order to accelerate their healing and, in some cases, avoid the need for drastic and expensive medication.
What Makes This Different?—The Wahls Behavior Change Model™
Dr. Wahls is a Clinical Professor of Internal Medicine – General Internal Medicine, and secondary appointments in Neurology College of Medicine and Epidemiology College of Public Health at the University of Iowa.
Through Dr. Wahls’ research at the University of Iowa, she leads a team that conducts clinical research trials to test the impact of diet and lifestyle behavior changes on patient health.
No other author in the health and wellness space conducts clinical research, publishes in peer-reviewed scientific journals or is building the scientific research that will change the standard of care on autoimmune and neurological patients.
The traditional behavior change model we have been taught isn’t working.
The Wahls Behavior Change™ Model is a 15 step process that practitioners can use to support their patients successfully adopt therapeutic diet and lifestyle choices. The Wahls Behavior Change™ model is based on her clinical research, science of behavior change, addiction medicine and her experience with the veteran patients in the Therapeutic Lifestyle Clinic. Practitioners who utilize the Wahls Behavior Change™ model have another effective tool to empower their patients and staff to improve clinical outcomes and more satisfying clinical practices.
How has what you learned benefited your practice?
—Becca Fichtl, Certified Nutrition Therapist (CNTP)
“The certification process and my attendance at The Wahls Protocol® Amplify Retreat was life-changing. Through this training and membership in this community, I now more fully grasp how food can aid the body in fighting disease and returning it to wholeness. I am better able to understand and address the needs of my clients by using food to fight the battle, I have in-depth knowledge of both the diet and lifestyle interventions, and I have access to proprietary resources. The monthly Q&A calls with Dr. Wahls and other certified professionals provide an opportunity to learn directly from her and from each other – they are an unparalleled value.”
