Hello! I am a physician specializing in General Preventive Medicine and Public Health and Lifestyle Medicine and am excited to work with individuals on their health goals through the evidence-based pillars of lifestyle medicine. I have spent most of my career in global health, mainly in Africa and SE Asia. In developing global guidelines and working with clinical teams to adapt and implement these health algorithms for chronic conditions in different countries and regions, I learned firsthand how important it is to talk about food, movement, treatment plans, and overall health in the context of patients’ goals and life situations. This is what I do with patients in my practice. I believe in a team approach to health care and work with patients to meet them where they are at in their own health journey and empower them to move towards where they want to be.

It brings me great joy that you are here and interested in a plant-based provider for your journey. I myself have always had a love of science so I obtained a B.S. in Biology. Since then, my passion for health and wellness has blossomed and continues to evolve with time.
Having encountered my own chronic health conditions, I found healing in a plant-based lifestyle accompanied with lifestyle modification.
I embarked on this journey to heal myself and now my mission and passion is to help share this information with others. As a 35 year old mother of two, I know what it’s like to lose your health but also what it is like to regain one’s quality of life. My goal is to help you improve your life and to help you give your body the support it needs to heal!

I take a holistic approach and incorporate health and wellness coaching, nutrition, and movement into my practice and my signature program. These are available on an a la carte basis but I truly believe the best approach to disease prevention and healing is a comprehensive one.

Hi, I’m Maren, a Certified Plant-Based Coach with a BA in Psychology. My passion is helping individuals transform their health through whole, plant-based foods and sustainable lifestyle changes. My approach is all about creating an empowering and personalized experience just for you. I’m here to provide consistent support to help you navigate challenges, uncover what’s been holding you back, and move forward with confidence. Together we’ll design a flexible and fun program that fits your specific needs, simplifying healthy eating into manageable steps that take the overwhelming feelings out of nutrition. The goal is to help you make gradual, but meaningful changes that align with your long-term wellness goals. Beyond the physical, I’m here to support the emotional side of your journey, offering a space to work through fears, doubts, or frustrations with compassion and empathy. One of the great things about coaching is there’s no “one-size-fits-all.” Together, we’ll build a personalized plan based on your unique goals, lifestyle, and needs. From meal planning to lifestyle strategies, I focus on the whole person, ensuring that each step feels achievable and enjoyable. Whether you’re transitioning to plant-based eating or looking to improve your overall well-being, I’m here to provide education, guidance, and support through the entire journey.

A little backstory about me, my plant-based journey began with an eye-opening moment: watching a documentary in my high school health class that exposed me to the origins of our food system. This opened my eyes to our food system and how little I realized our food choices deeply impact our personal health, the health of the planet, and the wellbeing of animals. With these realizations, further research, and personal growth, I fully embraced a whole food plant centered lifestyle and haven’t looked back. Experiencing the benefits firsthand such as more energy, improved wellness, and clarity—solidified my mission to help others achieve the same. I’m passionate about showing how small but intentional changes can prevent lifestyle-related illnesses and create a healthier, more vibrant life. If you’re looking for someone who will support you every step of the way on your plant-based journey, I’m here for you. Let’s make those health goals a reality—together!

Beth has experienced her own transformation through plant-based eating. In December, 2017, she had to leave her job of 30 years as a music educator due to her own battles with pain and weight issues. She encountered challenges in carrying out basic activities such as going up stairs or participating in meetings. She could no longer even imagine setting up the stage for my middle school orchestra!
Her journey from pain to relief began in 2018 after watching the movie, “Forks Over Knives”. Having recently completing the research for her EdD dissertation, she gained a greater understanding and admiration for the research and outcomes showcased in this film. It was truly impressive to see the profound influence of dietary changes on people’s lives, which was both evident and inspiring!

Since then, she has gained valuable knowledge and skills. She recently achieved Root-Cause Health Coach certification from Lifestyle Prescriptions University, following previous certifications in Plant-based Coaching from the Food Revolution Network, and Whole Foods Plant-based Nutrition from Cornell University. Through this journey, she has shed 50 pounds and maintained the weight loss, was able to discontinue BP medication after 22 years, and at the age of 68, even jogged the whole way to the end of her first-ever 5K race! She is now enthusiastic about assisting others in their health endeavors, supporting them through each step of the way!

Graduating from Department of Medicine, Kochi National University in 1984, I am a Japan Ministry of Health Registered Anesthesiologist since 1989 and received Diplomate of Board of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in 1990. I pioneered laser surgery and aesthetic dermatology in Japan. My major surgery is blepharoplasty with excellent aesthetic results.

After reading the CHINA STUDY in 2011 and joined Dr. John McDougall’s live-in program in the same year, I was completely shifted to plant-based whole foods diet. I started a plant-based whole food plus gluten-free restaurant named CHOICE, on the first floor of my clinic building, in 2013. We have clinics for nutrition both for children and adults. We utilize many techniques and devices, such as live cell analysis, Oligoscan, AGEs readers, CAVI, FMD, Capillaro, Metatron and so on to evaluate patient health non-invasively. Our vice president doctor, Dr. Izumi Nakamori is a board certificated pediatrician as well as a plastic surgeon. Our current mission is to spread the idea of PBWF diet to the entire population in our country. I established Plantrician JAPAN, a Japanese version of Plantrician Project, with Dr.Scott Stoll being a vice president of our society.
