"As a pre/post natal and pregnancy chiropractor, I am beyond impressed with Maranda's Postpartum Certification content. It aligns with my thinking and knowledge that most of the dietary information given nowadays is inaccurate and simply not what our body's are meant to eat to thrive! And.... our postpartum mamas need our support and the knowledge to fuel their bodies as they recover and flourish into motherhood. This certification course is well-rounded, easy to follow and eye opening and needs to be shared with women everywhere."

"I am in my 70s and still crave education in my field of work, and this course filled every gap I had. I highly recommend it to anyone who is a caregiver to postpartum moms and dads. The course layout and class structures are easy to follow and held my interest. This course can easily be taken and understood by anyone new to this information or by a professional. I have to say, there has been quite a bit of editing and adding to my existing program. There is no way to express how grateful I am. This course really did change my life and renewed my passion. Maranda Bower, I am honored."

Although this program is designed to educate, support, and ally postpartum professionals, this is not a fit for you if:
- You expect to learn the outdated method of counting calories or nutrient intake values.
- You are uncomfortable with digital, self-directed learning.
- You believe that you are limited by your profession or that nutrition is out of your "scope of practice".
Root Cause Care
One of the biggest medical myths is that the body functions in separate parts rather than as a whole. In postpartum, the physiological shifts temporarily redefine digestion and alter absorption, impacting every aspect of the body.
Root Cause Care recognizes that an imbalance in nourishment creates long lasting symptoms that have been labeled as "normal". Depression, anxiety, bloating, fatigue, major hair loss, hormone imbalance, depletion, autoimmune issues, organ dysfunction, and so much more are all too common but far from normal.
