Evidence. Clarity.
Better choices.
Hi, I'm Mariela Magallon a Nutritionist Certified Dietary Manager and the founder of The Nutritionist Files. My path has taken me from managing public health budgets at the Ministry of Finance, to clinical nutrition in a hospital in Guadalajara, to building digital products that make credible nutrition knowledge accessible.
I believe clear, factual information is the foundation of lasting health. This site is my way of sharing what the evidence actually says without the noise.
