We are switching up the supervised practice program features and welcomed Dr. Wesley McWhorter, DrPH, MS, RD, LD, CSCS to our podcast! He has such a unique and inspiring background that we just had to share with RD2BEs. He is currently the Director of Lifestyle Medicine at Suvida Health, but he holds so many cool experiences and expertise in nutrition and exercise. He is a professional chef, a strength and conditioning coach, cookbook author, behavioral scientist, and functional/lifestyle medicine expert (also not to mention he is a Spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics!).
In this episode, we discuss his motivations for using food as medicine, switching careers, research experience, and great motivational advice for those pursuing the RD credential.
