Break free from food loops.

The problem may not be that nutrition is too complicated. It may be that you've been asking the wrong questions.

👋 Hey There!

Food behavior is brain behavior.

Most nutrition advice begins with the question:

"What should I eat?"

But I think there's another important question that should come first:

"Why do I eat the way I do?"

I'm Timothy Frie, a nutritional cognitive neuroscientist, neurobehavioral nutritionist, and founder of the National Center for Neuronutrition and the National Academy of Neuronutrition.

I help neurodivergent people who have experienced childhood trauma, have chronic health conditions, and a complex relationship with food understand why they eat the way they do.
