About Mary Jane Bembenek

A formerly successful diagnostic and life sciences technical sales professional, Mary Jane rediscovered her passion for medicine, nutrition, whole foods, cooking, health, strength training, and self-care during her graduate studies. Her academic journey deepened her interest in the connections between nutrition, overall health, and quality of life. Mary Jane takes a personalized, evolving approach to nutrition, with an emphasis on longevity, vitality, and quality of life. She continually adapts her habits and strategies as new challenges and opportunities arise, recognizing that some changes are temporary while others become lifelong practices. Following antibiotic therapy in 2025, a surprising recent report from her Tiny Health PRO Gut Health Test prompted her to implement a microbiome restoration protocol. Her experience reflects her commitment to lifelong learning and applying evidence-informed nutritional strategies to support health and well-being. In 2013, Mary Jane earned her Master of Science in Nutrition and Integrative Health from Maryland University of Integrative Health, formerly the Tai Sophia Institute. In 2026, the university's graduate-level programs merged into Notre Dame of Maryland University. She is a Certified Nutrition Specialist® through the Board for Certification of Nutrition Specialists, affiliated with the American Nutrition Association, and a Licensed Dietitian-Nutritionist in Maryland and Delaware. Outside of her professional life, Mary Jane enjoys CrossFit, a dedicated Iyengar yoga practice, reading fiction, and knitting. She prioritizes strength training and yoga to maintain and build skeletal muscle while supporting mobility, resilience, and long-term health. Mary Jane also finds joy in the kitchen, preparing delicious, nourishing meals with her husband, Mike, using fresh ingredients sourced directly from local farms.
