Ep. 15: The Menopause-Nutrition Link

Today, I’m taking this show into a personal realm. This show is for the ladies. I have my friend Kari Martinez in the studio with me to talk about my personal problems. Well, mine and everyone else’s. Kari is a Registered Dietician and today she is going to answer our questions about menopause.

Now, this is a problem solving show but today seems like we are solving a mystery. Forbes Magazine says that by 2025 there will be one billion women on the planet experiencing menopause, and I will refrain from making any kind of joke about that. Instead, I am turning to an expert for answers to your questions and mine about what the heck we are supposed to do when this happens.

Although I guess that’s not really fair because my guest can only answer our questions about what to eat. Kari Martinez is a registered dietician based in Atlanta, GA, where she is the owner ofBloomRD, an integrative nutrition practice specializing in a comprehensive and holistic approach to helping her clients create optimal health. 

I met Kari when we used to work together, and she became my go-to expert on autoimmune diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hashimoto's, Fibromyalgia, and other chronic conditions. She also specializes in stubborn weight issues and gastrointestinal conditions, and not only do I refer my clients to her, she is my personal dietician as well! 

She knows what she is talking about, yall. She earned her Masters in Nutrition and Public Health at Columbia, has been a licensed dietitian since 2013, and earned her Certified LEAP therapist credential at Oxford Biomedical, and continues to be a lifelong learner in the field of Functional Nutrition.
