Lily Nichols is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, researcher, and author with a passion for evidencebased prenatal nutrition and exercise. Drawing from the current scientific literature and the wisdom of traditional cultures, her work is known for being researchfocused, thorough, and sensible.

Lily's bestselling book, 'Real Food for Gestational Diabetes' (and online course of the same name), presents a revolutionary nutrientdense, lower carb diet for managing gestational diabetes. Her unique approach has not only helped tens of thousands of women manage their gestational diabetes (most without the need for blood sugarlowering medication), but has also influenced nutrition policies internationally.

Lily’s second book, 'Real Food for Pregnancy', is an evidencebased look at the gap between conventional prenatal nutrition guidelines and what’s optimal for mother and baby. With over 930 citations, this is the most comprehensive text on prenatal nutrition to date.

Lily is also creator of the popular blog, www.LilyNicholsRDN.com, which explores a variety of topics related to real food, mindful eating, and pregnancy nutrition.
