Take Control of
Your Metabolic
Health
A Personalized and Science-Backed Approach to Better Blood Sugar, Cholesterol, Blood Pressure, and Weight.
When Your Health Feels Out of Control
You’ve been trying to make better choices, eating “healthy,” exercising more, cutting carbs, yet your labs keep moving in the wrong direction. Maybe your doctor mentioned rising cholesterol, higher blood pressure, or borderline blood sugar and told you to “watch your diet.” But you’re not sure what that really means.
You’ve read conflicting advice about cutting out carbs, fasting, or following extreme diets. You’re tired of feeling hungry, tired of feeling low energy, or frustrated when nothing seems to make a lasting difference. And behind it all, there’s fear. Fear of diabetes. Fear of starting medication. Fear of heart disease or other chronic conditions down the road.
It’s frustrating that so many people are given generic advice when personalized nutrition strategies could significantly improve their labs, energy, and long-term health.
You don’t have to accept that diabetes progression is inevitable. With the right approach, you can stabilize blood sugar, regain energy, and feel in control of your health again.
Meet Martha, Your Expert in Metabolic Health
I’m Martha McKittrick, RD, a Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist with over 20 years of experience helping thousands of clients improve their metabolic health. Through evidence-based, personalized strategies, I work with clients to improve blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, and support sustainable weight management, often helping them avoid or reduce the need for medications.
My deep clinical training, including as a co-author of The Type 2 Diabetic Cookbook and Action Plan, allows me to understand how blood sugar, lipids, hormones, and lifestyle habits interact. But just as importantly, I understand the emotions that come with hearing concerning news from your doctor.
I’ve sat with countless people who felt scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what to do after learning their numbers were trending in the wrong direction. That fear is completely valid, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
My approach is investigative and compassionate. I look beyond the lab results to uncover the patterns contributing to metabolic imbalance, including sleep, stress, muscle mass, nutrition timing, gut health, and inflammation. I’ll help you understand what’s happening in your body and create a plan that fits your real life.
With virtual appointments, you’ve got a metabolic health expert wherever you are.
With your guidance and expertise we have changed the way our entire family eats. My husband’s cholesterol went way down and his LDL dropped significantly. He has lost weight and looks fantastic (might I even say younger). Eating healthy does not mean not eating or not enjoying, it’s all about knowing what to eat and what to look out for. Thank you for making us all healthier!

A Clear Path to
Better Metabolic
Health
STEP ONE
Investigate and Understand
I begin by doing a comprehensive review of your health background, including metabolic labs such as HbA1c, fasting glucose, and lipid panels, as well as your family and medical history, weight trends, and current lifestyle patterns. I take a detailed look at your diet, exercise, sleep, and stress to identify habits that may affect your metabolic health, such as portion sizes, macronutrient combinations, or meal timing. This research and review allow me to identify patterns contributing to metabolic imbalance and create a strong foundation for meaningful change.
STEP TWO
Create Your Personalized Strategy
Based on what we uncover, I’ll design a tailored plan to improve blood sugar balance, support healthy cholesterol and blood pressure levels, and promote long-term metabolic health. You’ll receive practical education on carbohydrate quality, portion balance, meal timing, and reading food labels with confidence. If you are already on medications, I will work with you to optimize your body’s response to them.
With my specialized expertise, I’ll also help you understand how different foods, medications, and lifestyle habits interact so you can make informed, confident choices every day.
Together, we’ll create a realistic, sustainable approach that fits your preferences, schedule, and goals.
STEP THREE
Implement with Ongoing Support
Follow-up sessions help to track progress, refine goals, and provide continued education and support. For clients who want a deeper understanding, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) may also be recommended.
Though I am NYC-based, virtual appointments allow you to have expert guidance that is always within reach.
After being diagnosed with prediabetes, navigating a lower-carb lifestyle felt overwhelming. Working with Martha made it much easier. She is kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. After several phone sessions, I lost 36 pounds in eight months, my blood pressure and blood sugar returned to normal, and I feel great. I highly recommend Martha if you’re looking for lasting health improvements.

Feel Strong, Focused, and in Control
Imagine having stable blood sugar, increased energy, and often a reduced need for medications. Picture feeling confident in your daily food choices, with a reduced fear of future health complications and a sense of pride in taking charge of your health.
You are living proof that lifestyle and personalized nutrition can dramatically change your metabolic future.
This is not about perfection or restriction. It’s about learning how your body works and discovering how to support it naturally. With the right plan and support, you can live a healthy, vibrant life full of energy, freedom, and peace of mind.
I’ve been faithfully following the plan you created for me. My weight dropped from 140 to 118 pounds, and I’m thrilled that my blood sugar and cholesterol are now well within the normal range. After years of searching for the right approach, I finally found something sustainable. People often ask how I lost the weight and I’m happy to share my experience working with you.

What Happens If You Don’t Act
If your metabolic health continues to decline, your risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, worsening blood sugar, and other preventable complications increases. You might find yourself trying every restrictive diet, overwhelmed by lab results, and feeling more confused and frustrated than ever.
Your current health trajectory may lead to chronic conditions, medications may increase, and energy levels may drop even lower. You may feel anxiety about your future and regret not taking action sooner. You may begin to accept that this progression is inevitable when it isn’t.
You have the power to change your story starting today.
