Meet the Founder

As a proud Puerto Rican Latina, Certified Health Coach, and total foodie, I’m on a mission to help women over 40 manage autoimmune and peri-menopause symptoms—without giving up the vibrant, authentic flavors that make our culture so special.

Growing up in a home filled with the aromas of Puerto Rican and Latin Caribbean cooking, I was always searching for healthier ways to enjoy the dishes I love. But as a Latina navigating autoimmune challenges and chronic Lyme disease, I realized most recipes out there didn’t fit my needs—or truly celebrate our roots.

That’s why I created Nutrition Dork: a space where heritage meets health, and every recipe is crafted with cariño for our bodies and sabor for our souls. Whether you’re AIP, Paleo, Vegan, Whole30, Dairy-Free, or Gluten-Free, I want you to enjoy your favorite foods without sacrificing tradition.

So, Welcome to Nutrition Dork—donde honramos nuestras raíces, cuidamos nuestro cuerpo, y nos divertimos en el camino. Here’s to feeling good, eating well, and living with lots of love and alegría!

Con mucho amor, salud y felicidad,
Mayra
