Hi, I’m Liz...
I’m a registered dietitian with a passion for peanut butter sandwiches and an undying love for chocolate. I’ve been researching, writing, and speaking about eating for optimal health and happiness for over 25 years. I’ve written four books, including two award-winning, national bestsellers. I have two wonderful daughters, love hiking outdoors, and play hockey two to three times a week in the winter. Perhaps, most importantly, I never let a good dance song go to waste!
“Liz Pearson is a dietitian that inspires! This book will give you pleasure, joy, and make you think. It’s the perfect mix of delicious recipes, comprehensible nutrition insights and profound reflections on life. It’s absolutely addictive – as addictive as dark chocolate!”
