Nutrition with Lenore

Healthy living isn’t the destination.

It’s how we experience life more fully.

Lenore Matthew, PhD, MSW, lifestyle medicine and nutrition specialist.

Nutrition, movement, and taking care of your health should add to your life — not shrink it.


Healthy living isn't about restriction.

It's about creating a life that feels more...

Joyful.

Energetic.

Confident.

Connected.

Alive.

And fun!

When healthy living is built around who you are and what brings you joy, it becomes something you look forward to.

Not because you have to do it.

Because it makes your life feel better.

Because it makes you feel more alive.


I’m Lenore Matthew, PhD, MSW—a writer, speaker, educator, and nutrition practitioner passionate about helping people discover that healthy living can become one of the most joyful parts of life.

Through publications, speaking engagements, and nutrition education, I translate the latest research into clear, practical insights that help people build healthier lives—without perfection, guilt, or unnecessary restriction.

With a background in social work, behavior change, and nutrition science, my work brings together the psychology of lasting change with the science of lifelong health.

Whether you're interested in non-restrictive weight management, type 2 diabetes prevention and treatment, functional nutrition, healthy aging, children's health, or simply living a healthier, more joyful life, you'll find science-backed ideas designed to educate, inspire, and empower.

Based in Tampa Bay, Florida, I provide nutrition services locally while speaking and writing for audiences everywhere.
