About CAASN
Sports nutrition goes far beyond foods and nutrition. It is a blend of the six sciences of medicine, nutrition, exercise, physiology, biochemistry, and pharmacology. The athletic performance triangle includes “proper training”, “proper eating”, and “proper sleeping”. An optimal athletic performance relies on those three elements, and the lack of any of them would hamper athletic excellence and performance.
We aim to excel at providing our readers, members, and students with a variety of knowledge and information.
Taking sports nutrition to a new level, we maintain a “competitive edge” in the industry by providing unique and practical guidance. We take pride in ourselves on having the “World`s Most Comprehensive Website in Sports Nutrition”.
The Canadian Academy of Sports Nutrition is dedicated to facilitating genuine access to advanced sports nutrition for athletes of all levels and general public. We strive to provide quality services to all of our members, students, and readers.
We abide by the highest ethical standards and conduct ourselves in an honest, professional, and socially responsible manner. We are confident that we can excel together by creating a productive and mutually fulfilling relationship between US and our most important resource, YOU!

Rayan Rezaei2018-07-20I took the fitness nutrition course here. The course is provided online, with video lectures and PDF notes. The lecturer seems very knowledgeable, and all of the material has been practical for me. The best thing that they offer in my opinion is their assistance after you complete the course. They remain very receptive to your communication should you have later questions, and they offer shadowing lessons to help you gain real life experience. Overall, I highly recommend their instructional courses.
