In this heartfelt and transformative episode of Mind Your Nest, Jennifer Rosen is joined by Meryl Brandwein, a nutritionist and founder of the Brandwein Institute for Nutrition & Wellness. Meryl shares her deeply personal story of being diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma just six weeks after giving birth to her third child. As a nutritionist at the time, she was shocked by the diagnosis, but it led her on a path of healing that went beyond conventional medicine. Discover how Meryl embraced functional and alternative therapies that ultimately transformed her health and mindset.
Through her journey, she learned how food truly is medicine, how addressing root causes of ailments can lead to lasting wellness, and why the standard food pyramid may be doing more harm than good. She discusses the importance of personalized nutrition, how stress, sleep, and emotional health impact your well-being, and why a whole-body approach is key to longevity. Meryl also dives into the rise of quick-fix solutions like GLP-1 medications, explaining why they often fail to deliver long-term results. If you’re ready to take control of your health, challenge conventional wisdom, and learn from someone who’s been through it all, this episode is a must-listen!
