About the Company

Gesund Erwachsen JM UG is a German health education organization based in Gärtringen that operates purely online. Founded by nutritionist Janine Mast, the provider delivers certified online nutrition courses tailored to pregnancy, such as Gesund (Er)wachsen. Certified by the Zentrale Prüfstelle Prävention under section 20 SGB V (course number KU-ER-14ZCUM), the asynchronous program includes coaching videos, exercises, community support, and eligibility for health insurance reimbursement.

Study Programs

Gesund Erwachsen JM UG focuses exclusively on specialized health education and preventive nutrition counseling. The institution does not offer academic degree programs such as bachelor's or master's degrees, nor does it conduct on-site classroom courses. Its educational portfolio consists of a dedicated digital distance learning offering designed for expectant mothers, titled Gesund (Er)wachsen - Ernährungskurs für die Schwangerschaft. This online nutrition course is recognized as a certified prevention course in accordance with Section 20 of the German Social Code, Book V (SGB V), and is registered with the Zentrale Prüfstelle Prävention under the course number KU-ER-14ZCUM. The syllabus follows current scientific evidence and recommendations from the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Ernährung (DGE). Upon full completion of the curriculum, participants receive a digital certificate of participation (Teilnahmebescheinigung), which can be submitted to statutory and private health insurance providers for partial or full reimbursement of course fees. The training is structured into eight thematic modules that encompass 32 coaching videos, 18 practical transfer exercises, a recipe library, and access to a moderated online community. The first module covers personal motivation, caloric requirements, and healthy weight management. Subsequent modules explore balanced foundational nutrition using the DGE nutrition circle, carbohydrates and blood sugar control, proteins and essential dietary fats such as omega-3 DHA, and critical micronutrient requirements including folic acid, iodine, iron, and vitamin D. The final part of the curriculum addresses food safety, detailing foods to avoid and safe alternatives during pregnancy. It also delivers practical meal planning methods, fast and balanced cooking techniques, and guidance on lifestyle factors. The final module concludes with allergy prevention strategies, preparation for the breastfeeding period, and routines for sustained health. Participants receive six months of flexible online access to work through the material at their own pace, with an estimated workload of 45 to 60 minutes per week.

Application Procedure

Registration for the online nutrition course is completed directly online through Digistore24. There are no formal academic admission prerequisites or application deadlines, requiring only an internet connection and a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Participants can start at any point during pregnancy and retain access to the course materials for six months. A free trial of module one including the first three videos is available upon entering an email address. The enrollment is not a subscription, requires no formal termination, and includes a 14-day money-back guarantee accessible via the contact form. The course fee is a one-time charge of 179 euros, billed and processed by Digistore24 GmbH. Because the program is certified by the Zentrale Prüfstelle Prävention under Section 20 SGB V with the course identification number KU-ER-14ZCUM, statutory health insurance companies reimburse up to 100 percent of the cost. Prior approval from the health insurance company is not necessary, as statutory providers typically subsidize two prevention courses per calendar year. Reimbursement by private health insurance depends on the individual contract tariff. Upon finishing all eight modules, participants receive a digital certificate of completion to submit to their health insurer for reimbursement.
