Protect Your Heart
Personalized, science-based nutrition to enhance heart health, optimize lab values, and help you feel strong, energized, and in control.
Worried About Your Heart Health?
You’ve seen the numbers, high cholesterol, elevated blood pressure, or rising triglycerides, and you know it’s time to make a change. But everywhere you look, the advice is confusing and contradictory. One expert says to cut out all fats, another swears by a Mediterranean diet, and someone else insists you go plant-based.
You want to protect your heart, but you don’t know which approach actually works. You may be afraid of medications or already taking them and wondering if lifestyle changes could help you rely on fewer.
At the same time, you want to live fully, to enjoy food, travel, and social meals without fear or restriction. You’re not looking for another diet. You want a plan that truly supports your long-term heart health and fits your life.
I’m Martha. Here to Protect Your Heart.
My approach combines advanced nutrition science with a compassionate, personalized plan tailored to your lifestyle, labs, and goals. I look beyond the numbers to understand the bigger picture, including how inflammation, insulin resistance, stress, sleep, and daily habits influence your heart health.
There’s so much more to heart health than cutting out salt or fat. I help you focus on what to add in, including nutrient-rich foods that support blood flow, reduce inflammation, and strengthen your cardiovascular system.
My goal is to help you make small, sustainable changes that add up to lasting results. I don’t believe in restriction. I believe in education, balance, and empowerment. Based in NYC, and through virtual appointments, available wherever you are.
I lost 7 pounds, my total cholesterol dropped from 226 to 195, and my LDL decreased from 133 to 117. Thank you for your guidance and for helping me stay off medication.

Your Heart
STEP ONE
Investigate and Understand
We start with a comprehensive review of your health background, including labs such as cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure readings, medications, blood sugar, and family history. I’ll also review your diet, exercise, stress, and sleep patterns to identify habits that may be affecting your heart health.
Together, we’ll discuss your goals, whether decreasing your risk of heart disease, lowering your cholesterol, managing cholesterol naturally, improving energy, or simply feeling more confident about your long-term health.
STEP TWO
Create Your Personalized Strategy
I’ll design a plan tailored to your body and lifestyle, focusing on balanced nutrition, realistic movement, and sustainable routines. You’ll receive practical guidance on food choices, eating out, label reading, portion sizes, and meal composition. We’ll focus on adding heart-healthy foods rich in fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats rather than cutting everything out.
This approach supports better cholesterol and blood pressure levels, improves energy, and reduces overall cardiovascular risk. All while allowing you to enjoy the foods and activities you love.
STEP THREE
Implement with Ongoing Support
We’ll meet regularly to track your progress, adjust your plan, and celebrate your wins. You’ll have direct access between sessions for support and questions. With virtual appointments available, expert guidance is always within reach.
My cardiologist recommended Martha to help with my cholesterol and menopause weight gain. Working with Martha has changed my life! My cholesterol dropped 46 points, I lost 15 pounds and I feel much healthier. Martha is pleasant to work with and provides an easy-to-follow concrete plan. She is the best thing that happened to me right when I needed expert guidance.

Heart Health Confidence
Cholesterol and blood pressure improve, your cardiovascular risk decreases, and your energy rises. Every day activities feel easier, and you have the stamina to do the things you love with the people who matter most.
You will feel calm and confident knowing that your daily choices are protecting your heart. The worry that once followed every lab result begins to fade. You replace fear with clarity, frustration with confidence, and uncertainty with peace of mind.
You’ve come to a powerful understanding. Nutrition and lifestyle are not just about prevention. They are proof that you can influence your own heart health and overall longevity.
You will know that your future is not defined by your family history or past habits, but by the small, consistent choices you make today.
With Martha’s recommendations, my total cholesterol dropped from 279 to 201 in just three months. LDL came down as well. Thank you for putting me back on course.

When Things Don’t Change
Cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure can continue to rise, increasing the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other serious conditions. Fatigue may worsen, and medications may become a long-term necessity. You may need to increase your doses or add additional medications.
The anxiety and uncertainty remain. You may feel trapped in a cycle of frustration, regret, or fear that it’s too late to turn things around. The danger lies in accepting that heart disease is inevitable rather than preventable.
But it’s not too late. With the right guidance, your numbers can improve, and your heart health can grow stronger every day.
