Raising the Standard of Natural Health
Announcing Our New Name
IONC Becomes the International Orthomolecular and Naturotherapies Council
It is with deep gratitude and excitement that we announce a significant milestone in our organization’s evolution.
The International Organization of Nutritional Consultants (IONC) is now the International Orthomolecular & Naturotherapies Council (IONC).
This new name reflects our expanding vision and deeper commitment to supporting practitioners across a broad spectrum of natural and holistic health modalities.
As our members increasingly incorporate orthomolecular nutrition, complementary therapies, and emerging wellness approaches, our identity must evolve to reflect that growth.
As a recognized professional registry, we confer trusted designations – not simply verify credentials – ensuring our members meet high standards of training, ethics, and practice.
While our name has changed, our mission remans the same: to advance the field of nutritional and natural therapies though meaningful designations, education and practitioner support.
This transition strengths our ability to represent a diverse and growing global community dedicated to integrative health, wellness, and prevention.

Hope for World Peace
Let us send wisdom to each of the leaders in war-torn countries. May they each begin to reach for peaceful solutions to the issues instead of exhibiting aggressive behaviours. Killing resolves nothing as it fuels more hatred and cycles of violence. We are all created equal with inalienable rights while on this planet. Every life is sacred. None should be enslaved by another, be it the misuse of hierarchy, the abuse of economic structures or the distortions of religious teachings. May new choices rather than reactive choices be made in the best interests of all humanity and the planet.
Professional Scope of Practice for ROHP/RNCPs
As an ROHP/RNCP, there are ethical and legal obligations that are crucial to professional practice.
Professional practitioners have the duty to be honest with clients, provide quality service and work within the following safeguards outlined below.
These principles of ethics and conduct are essential to the process by which you govern your practice to help legally protect yourself and your clients.
Become an IONC Professional Member
Provided you meet the IONC educational requirements from an approved Orthomolecular and Holistic Nutrition Education Training Provider and supply all required documents, you may apply to become a Registered Orthomolecular Health Practitioner (ROHP) or Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner (RNCP). Your level of training will determine the professional designation awarded.
IONC Raising the Standard of Natural Health
It starts with staying true to ourselves and being in alignment with nature.
Our bodies are always signalling and informing us as to how well we are living in accordance to our true nature, which is pure love. Pure love conditions and optimizes our biology and it is our true source of immunity.
Clean food, nutrition, environment and lifestyle of course plays its part but this requires us to reverse the corruption of our food chain, the poisoning of our water supply and its ill effects on our intestines and minds.
If we can move forward together in agreement with nature, standing strong and not falling prey to external suggestions that lack integrity, nurturing what is right and dispensing with what is wrong, then wellness can return as our natural, more comfortable state of being.
Power of Choice
We must always retain the power of choice to direct our wellbeing and how we care for our own bodies.
Our Presence
We should be able to choose the way our societies function, not by rules and regulations that ignore our presence – our feelings, opinions, and preferences.
Unbound by Rules
We have become contaminated by the unhealthy control and power of agencies, agendas and propaganda that discriminates, divides and turns us against one another, saying one thing is better than another.
Nature's Laws
We have our own self-governing, self-regulating mechanism which is our source connection with nature’s laws – don’t destroy nature, don’t kill and tell the truth!Meet the Executive Team
