Jennifer Leary, is an integrative nutrition health coach who has been working with E4 Diabetes Solutions since 2015. Her focus is stress management and relaxation, as well as teaching about the plant-based whole foods lifestyle. As a registered yoga teacher and lifelong student of Ayurveda, meditation, and herbalism, she often weaves these practices and theories into her health coaching programs. She went through her own health challenges with thyroid disease in her early twenties and was told she’d be on medication for the rest of her life. She started researching and learning more about the plant based diet and made other lifestyle changes that led to her eventually reversing hypothyroidism. She is now medication-free and loves teaching and helping others who also want to change their lives. She’s been encouraging and guiding others on their health journeys for over ten years. After a 15-year career in environmental consulting, editing, and business administration, Jennifer shifted full time into the holistic health field. She has helped develop organic farms and greenhouses in Costa Rica and New England, worked at two herbal apothecaries and medicinal herb farms, taught yoga and meditation, and provided elder care. Her passion is helping others to better enjoy life using plants (and food) as medicine. She received her Bachelor’s degree in English and Business from Framingham State University in 2005, and her integrative health coaching certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in March of 2018.
