Keri Glassman, MS, RD, CDN

Dietitian and author

Nationally recognized nutrition expert and published author Keri Glassman is the founder and president of Keri Glassman, Nutritious Life, a nutrition practice based in New York City. For years Keri has been a leader in advancing a "whole person" approach to health and wellness. She has dedicated her career to creating services and promoting education through her "Nutritious Life" brand.

"Nutritious Life" recognizes the importance of a whole person approach to health. The "Nutritious Life Cycle" includes getting adequate sleep, managing stress, exercising and having joy in one's life, in addition to pampering and good nutrition. Women's Health Magazine embraces Keri's practical and accessible approach to health and wellness. She is a member of their advisory board and writes a popular monthly column called "Take a Load Off". WebMD also recognizes the significance of "Nutritious Life" and Keri's contribution as the first registered dietitian to develop a line of food-based skin care products; Skin Appetit. Keri is a health, wellness, and beauty expert for the WebMD magazine and also appears in related videos online. The "Healthy Beauty" skin care line is the most recent expression of Keri's "beauty from the inside out" philosophy and will be launched in early 2010.

Keri has authored two books; the most recent is The O2 Diet. The cutting edge, antioxidant-based diet that will make you thin and beautiful. (Rodale, December 2009.) This book translates complex scientific research on antioxidants and the ORAC scale into useful and useable tools that everyone can benefit from. It empowers people to live a more Nutritious Life by combining a nutrient-dense, high antioxidant diet with the other components of the Nutritious Life Cycle. The O2 Diet follows the Snack Factor Diet, (Crown, 2007.)

The success and growth of her "Nutritious Life" brand has not lessened Keri's commitment to nutrition counseling and her New York practice. She personally counsels clients with a broad range of challenges and helps millions more as a nutrition contributor for The CBS Early Show. She is dedicated to her field and to the broader goal of educating the public and her expertise has been featured on several television programs including The View, The Today Show, MSNBC, The Fox News Channel, and NY1. She is a spokesperson for Hain Celestial and other national brands that align with the Nutritious Life mission and is a prolific writer and commentator with contributions to numerous publications* nationwide.

Keri still finds time to go beyond her own business and into her community. She supports several health and wellness organizations including The American Dietetic Association, The Women's Sports Foundation, and The New York Runners Club. Keri holds a Masters of Science degree in clinical nutrition from New York University. She was an All-American lacrosse player at Tufts University and has completed the New York City Marathon and triathlons. Keri resides in New York City with her husband Brett and their children, Rex and Maizy.
