About

Lenore Matthew, PhD

Healthy living should be rooted in science and filled with joy.

Through nutrition science and lifestyle medicine, I translate research into practical, evidence-based programs and ideas that help people build healthier lives they genuinely enjoy living.

Nutrition science, behavior change, and the joy of living well.

I’m Lenore Matthew, PhD—a nutrition specialist, writer, and educator. My work brings together evidence-based behavior change, nutrition science, and one core belief: for healthy living to last, it has to be joyful and fun.

With a doctorate in social work specializing in health and nutrition, I bring more than 15 years of experience in direct healthcare, evaluation, and research, leading interventions in private practice, community, and global settings. Throughout that work, I’ve been fascinated by what helps people make meaningful changes—and what helps those changes become part of everyday life.

I’ve also seen firsthand how powerfully nutrition and movement shape overall well-being. Beyond physical health, they can influence our energy, confidence, connection, and the way we experience our lives. That understanding inspired me to expand from social work into nutrition and dietetics.

I’m currently completing my Registered Dietitian Nutritionist training at the University of South Florida. My clinical interests include lifestyle medicine, weight management, type 2 diabetes treatment and prevention, and the power of food, movement, and community as medicine.

Here, I share my writing and the original, evidence-based programs I create, grounded in nutrition science, behavior change, and the joy of living well.

Healthy living is one of the ways we can experience life more fully—with more energy, connection, joy, and fun. I’m so glad you’re here.
