There Definitely is Something about Mary Shenouda | Nutrition Edition

This week’s podcast is all about nutrition, featuring private chef and nutrition expert Mary Shenouda. There is definitely something about Mary! It’s true that she prepares custom meals for some of the West Coast’s biggest names in sports. From Major League Soccer stars to players on the NBA Champion Warriors team, she’s at the top of her game. She’s also an entrepreneur and business owner creating her own custom product called Phat Fudge, a little idea that sprouted from her home kitchen in Venice Beach, California.

Mary used to have significant autoimmune issues and debilitating migraines. It got so bad some days at her high-paced tech sales job in Silicon Valley that she would have to take breaks under her desk with a blackout sleep mask and ice packs on her neck just to get through a regular work day.

She visited countless doctors with so-called professionals who either dismissed her symptoms as “mental issues” or misdiagnosed her with other problems that were unsubstantiated by lab results. Frustrated with years of pain and suffering, Mary concluded that her last option was to take responsibility for researching and solving her own health issues and leaned heavily in to nutrition.

She developed a 7-day system called the Gut Reset that gave her body and collaborating doctors new information about how to heal by eliminating and adding certain foods to her diet. Flash forward years later and now she’s thriving and helping others to live healthier lives with food and lifestyle changes. 

Many of Mary’s clients need to perform their job at the highest levels. The good news is that there is not a one-size-fits all diet for everyone. This is an “inside job” where customizing to your personal biology matters. Like sleep, exercise (and regular oral hygiene care), nutrition is one of the most important building blocks to good health. 

I hope you enjoy this delicious episode of The Crown Prince of Brooklyn as much as I did. Wishing you much continued happiness and good health!

ICYMI - The purpose of the podcast is simple…

The team and I want to use this podcast platform to provide value to you by way of free information and education about important health & wellness tips and recommendations. This includes our specialties in oral healthcare, but we are also privileged to know and collaborate with many experts in other fields who will be our guests to talk about everything from nutrition, peak performance, dermatology, strength training, mental health, entrepreneurship and more!

For this reason you should always research and consult your personal doctor (or Bensonhurst Dental team for dental issues) before starting any new routine, practice or treatment mentioned in these podcasts. We are so happy you’re coming along this journey with us in the pursuit of continued health and happiness!
