Today’s guest is my friend and neighbor Tomekia Vikhrov, who is a licensed dietitian. Tomekia completed a Bachelor of Science in Food and Nutrition at the University of Minnesota, she went on to complete a dietetic internship at Western Carolina University which qualified her to sit for The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Registration exam to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. Tomekia has worked ICU, LTAC (vents and wounds), Physical/Neuro Rehab as well as working in Ambulatory care where she was the pregnancy dietitian where she helped mothers navigate Gestational Diabetes and Hyperemesis. In addition to having experience teaching group classes and individual counseling for Weight loss, Diabetes, outpatient pediatrics, and Heart Health.
She and I talk about everything from Keto to Fecal Transplants (yes, that is a thing). I enjoyed this conversation so much and learned a few things that will help me make better, more informed nutritional decisions going into this 40th year.
