I just finished my FBS Final on August 28th, 2025. All in all, I think this program is very extensive. I personally studied a lot of natural health topics on my own prior to enrollment in this course and worked at a natural health store for many years, so I was aware of about 70% of the material we covered. That 30% that I wasn't aware of definitely made the cost worthwhile to me, especially now that I can branch off and help clients in a more official manner. That being said, I was majorly disappointed in the reproductive section. The reason why is because the section focused entirely on female hormones and offered very few conversations about male specific issues. The natural health world is 80% female dominated. One of my main focuses is trying to help men specifically because women comprise the majority of this space. I was really looking forward on a dedicated section to male reproductive health (since we men are responsible for half of the pregnancy afterall, lol). I really believe that the reproductive section needs to be labeled as "Female Reproductive System " because all month I was excited to have a week or two focused on men.I ended up getting little to nothing actionable for helping with male hormones, outside of a few minutes in one or two classes during this section.All in all I do like this program and think it's a good investment if you want to learn and help people with their health (and yours too).
