Jourdan Mercurio-Lewis, MSNHP

“One thing nobody can ever take away from you is your education.” From a young age, those words were instilled into Jourdan by her grandfather. Jourdan always knew she wanted to get into nutrition, but also knew her journey to get there would be a bit longer and challenging.

After battling anorexia for 10 years, the drive to teach others how to properly fuel their body and break diet culture held a special place in her heart. In order to stay out of diet culture in her education, Jourdan decided to pursue a Bachelors in Health Science with an dietetic supervised internship and Masters in Nutrition & Human Performance. This path allowed her to continue a life of recovery, all while enhancing her nutrition education.

Being a college athlete, Jourdan decided to also complete her emphasis in Sports Nutrition during her Masters study. “Watching an athlete go from great to untouchable when they hone in on their diet brings me honor.”

“I was given my eating disorder for a reason. My strength to overcome was to then be used to strengthen others.” No matter your health goal, Jourdan coaches her clients with sustainability; instilling habits that allow them to become confident with food and body.

JML Nutrition will allow you to live that “Healthy with a side of donuts” lifestyle as Jourdan would say.
