A Word From the Founder of GPNi® - Where Real Sports Nutrition Begins
Article Thumbnail

 

Today all over the world, people are looking for answers to the questions of the field of sports nutrition, performance and overall health. The athletes want to recover quicker and coaches are seeking better research and everyone wants to understand how they can get their bodies to function without confusion.

However, let's face it:

The vast majority of information on the internet today isn't science.It's trends.
It's opinions.
It's influencer and guesswork that is presented as facts.

This overpowering noise is precisely the reason GPNi® exists.

We created GPNi®, which stands for Global Performance Nutrition Institute (GPNi®) to offer the world something it's been missing for way too long:

An authentic, scientifically-supported worldwide standard for food education.

One that goes beyond the myths of social media and outdated textbooks, or flimsy certificate sites.
One that is grounded in real research, real science real jobs and real trustworthiness.

 

What is the reason GPNi® was required to be Its Creation

When I first got into my journey into the food and sports world more than thirty years ago, this field did not look like it does now. The science was still developing and it was a research-based community that was tiny it was the most effective way to get trustworthy information was through working with the appropriate instructors as well as professionals.

I was blessed.
I learned from the pioneers in the field of PhDs, professors and researchers who created the scientific foundations we depend on to this day.

I travelled the globe I performed on stages and worked with athletes. I worked with universities, created global brands and established NiHTEK®, which is now regarded as the most ingenuous brand-named ingredient manufacturer in sports nutrition.

In all the years the same thing was painfully obvious:

There was no one globally recognized path to reliable sports nutrition education.

People were looking for real answers.
But they couldn't locate real instructors.
They couldn't find authentic scientific research.
They couldn't find genuine industry connections.

Therefore, we came up with GPNi® to modify the way we do.

 

Why is it that ISSN is it the Authority that the industry trusts

If you are looking to learn more about the importance of nutrition for sports, you need to begin at understanding the science.And the science begins with the ISSN which is which stands for the International Society of Sports Nutrition.

For more than 30 years the ISSN has served as the most authoritative source in research on nutrition for athletes.
They are the group behind:

  • Creatine research
  • Protein metabolism science
  • Protocols for Supplementation
  • Carbohydrate fueling strategies
  • Optimization of performance
  • Nutrition guidelines for athletes based on scientific evidence

Researchers, universities scientists, academics and professionals from sports performance around the world rely in ISSN data.

This is the reason why GPNi® has made a pledge at the beginning:
We would become the only global sports nutrition certification that is directly backed with the ISSN.

No shortcuts.
No compromises.
No fake "accreditations".
Just real science from the global authority.

 

GPNi® Today is a Global Community of Evidence-Based Professionals

Now we are at a point where GPNi® has become a global educational platform with students from 50+ countries.

We are pleased to offer:

If you're an athlete or trainer, coach or fitness professional, nutritionist or simply someone who is enthusiastic about understanding nutrition for performance, GPNi® is your place to get a true, scientific education.

 

The reason why Choosing the Right Certification is Important

Not all certificates are all created to be the same.
In fact, the majority of "nutrition certificates" online today can be classified within two types:

  1. Mills for PDF companies that sell quick, automated, and unverified "certifications" designed by marketing professionals, not experts.
  2. Insurer policy bundles - Programs in which the certificate serves as required to sell an insurance product, not an actual educational.

None of these options will improve your education or your professional career.

A valid sports nutrition certificate must:

  • Enhance your understanding of science
  • Increase your confidence and increase your credibility
  • Earn more money
  • Learn real-world applications
  • Make connections to the worldwide professional network
  • You will be recognized and respected throughout the business

This is precisely that the GPNi® and ISSN collaboration provides.

When you invest in an education that is real, you are committing towards your career.
And your career will reflect this investment for years to come.
