Vegan Nutrition with Marty Davey, M.S. R.D. Marty Davey is a Registered Dietitian and has a Masters degree in Food and Nutrition from Marywood University. In her first career incarnation, Marty worked in the entertainment field, mainly in film and television. During her first college career in the 1970's, Marty moved from her blue collar meat and potatoes diet to learning to eat a variety of beautifully meals set in a relaxed dinnertime while studying in France. She became a vegetarian in 1980 when she discovered that the French didn't want our meat products due to factory farming methods. She began studying nutrition while cleansing her diet to a totally plant-based lifestyle. After having her son, she embarked on becoming an RD.
Marty has taught nutrition and cooking classes for many years. She was the Program Coordinator of the SNAP! program at Marywood University. This was a family weight management program that focused on the family dynamic in dealing with weight issues for both parents and children. Currently, Marty is working on a book for elderly vegetarians/vegans discussing daily nutrition needs and including issues with acute and long term facility care when following a plant-based diet. A website is being built for Marty to further educate people about plant-based diets. She also has a private practice specializing in assisting clients transitioning from the conventional Western foods to a plant-based regime. Ask Marty your nutrition question here. New at VegFamily!
