Understand what influences cancer risk and healthy ageing
In a field often overshadowed by fear and misinformation, providing evidence-based guidance on cancer risk is a significant professional responsibility. For the health practitioner, the challenge is helping clients navigate a complex landscape of carcinogens and protective factors without making prohibited medical claims.
The Nutrition for Cancer Prevention and Longevity™ certification provides a PhD-led, rigorous framework for understanding the cellular mechanics of cancer and the nutritional strategies that support life extension.
You’ll explore:
- What happens when a normal cell becomes a cancer cell
- The molecular and biochemical foundations of different cancer types
- Theories and biological mechanisms of ageing
- Genetic and environmental influences on cancer risk and ageing
- The role of diet and lifestyle in cancer risk and healthy longevity
- Carcinogens and other potential risk factors
- Protective dietary and lifestyle factors
- Oxidative stress and inflammation
- Cellular repair and longevity biology
- How inherited risk may affect prevention considerations
- The evidence around fasting and caloric restriction
- Low-protein diets
- Ketogenic and low-carbohydrate diets
- Vegan, vegetarian and plant-based diets
- Gluten-free diets and other popular dietary approaches
- How to assess cancer and longevity claims in the media and online
- How to personalise nutrition and lifestyle strategies around an individual’s health and prevention goals

- Explain the theories of ageing, the mechanisms underlying the ageing process, and the clinical implication of age-related diseases
- Understand the molecular and biochemical bases, the diagnosis and treatment of different cancers, and the commonality and variability between cancer types
- Recognise and distinguish the contribution of environmental and genetic factors to cancer causation and the process of ageing
- Analyse the role of diet and lifestyle in the progression of ageing and in cancer prevention, development, and treatment
- Identify the effects of popular regimes on cancer risk and lifespan extension, e.g. fasting, caloric restriction, low-protein, ketogenic, vegan, or gluten-free diets

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any prerequisites or qualification requirements?
No. You do not need any previous qualifications, nutrition degree, or professional experience to join our certifications.
Our certifications are designed to take you from foundational concepts through to advanced, evidence-based practice at your own pace.
