"Last spring was the third time I attended the nEI CME lectures.  Each time I attend the lectures, I always feel I have something new to bring back to my practice.  Annually, I attend a total of about 50 hours CME but I enjoy the nEI the most since it offers the latest scientific breakthroughs and it teaches us very practical material that our patients are always looking for.  This CME has increased my confidence in promoting optimal health to my patients through nutrition and lifestyle change.  I feel that these lectures should be taught in medical school since this CME offers a lot of pearls that would take several years to digest from medical books.  The lecturers were all top notch but I felt that Dr. Blumenfeld really hit the mark with his lecture on Nutragenomics since IT IS the future of medicine"

"The nEI course has allowed me to take my skills and understanding to a new level. Dr. Blumenfeld and his very experienced engaging practitioners simply bring you not just the basics, but cutting edge nutritional research and trends and make it relevant. I feel that I now am able to offer the best information and treatment far and above that of my colleagues."

"I have attended the NEI course 2 times and have come away from each course with some new clinical pearls that I was able to immediately implement in my practice.  As a Naturopathic Physician, my education taught me about the use of herbs and nutrients to maintain optimal wellness, so the course was a fantastic refresher.  The most inspirational part of the course for me was the ability to meet like-minded physicians in all specialties and share clinical experiences and knowledge.  It was refreshing to realize that so many physicians are looking for information on maintaining wellness rather than treating disease."

"I found the course very rewarding due to the diversity of the subject matter and topics like the one on antioxidants and bioflavanoids for health and disease management. I highly recommend it. The speakers were exceptional and the agenda was presented in a very organized format. I walked away knowing I learned a lot!!!"
