Plant-Based Eating for Active Living: Strength, Energy, and Longevity

More About Kayla Slater, MD, RDN
Kayla says:

"I'm a Registered Dietitian of 10 years that specializes in working in whole-food plant-based nutrition, weight management, eating disorders, GI health, and sports nutrition. I am also a certified personal trainer, run coach, nutrition coach, and certified in plant-based nutrition from T. Colin Campbell's Center for Nutrition Studies. I have worked with an outpatient eating disorder team, struggled with my own disordered eating, worked with plant-based endurance athletes, and those looking to transition to plant-based for health, weight loss, or performance. I want to help you to find a good relationship with food to fuel your body for your health, sport, and life! I am also an avid marathon/ultra runner, triathlete, and hiker, dog lover, and love to cook vegan food for friends and family!

"My approach as a RD is client-centered, plant-forward, and focused on mindful eating. This means I am here to guide you and give my expertise and advice, but ultimately you are in charge of your own health. I like to start where you are and help you make simple changes to reach your long-term goals. I believe everyone can benefit from eating more plants so likely will encourage you to try new plant-based foods. I will also encourage you to eat more mindfully long-term."
