Orthomolecular is a term that comes from ortho, which is Greek for "correct" or "right," and "molecule," which is the simplest structure that displays the characteristics of a compound. So it means the "right molecule." Two-time Nobel Prize winner, and molecular biologist, Linus Pauling, Ph.D., coined the term "Orthomolecular" in his 1968 article "Orthomolecular Psychiatry" in the journal "Science."

Orthomolecular medicine describes preventing disease and maintaining health by providing the body with optimal amounts of nutritional substances that are natural to the body.This course is designed to equip you with the knowledge you need to practice as an orthomolecular Medical Practitioner and be eligible for registration with the Board of Integrative Medicine.
