Miriam Kalamian - Cancer, ketones
Miriam Kalamian, nutrition consultant, educator, author.
Miriam Kalamian is a nutrition consultant, educator, and author specializing in the implementation of ketogenic therapies. She earned her master of education (EdM) from Smith College and her master of human nutrition (MS) from Eastern Michigan University. She is board certified in nutrition (CNS) by the Board for Certification of Nutrition Specialists.
Inspired by the work of Thomas N. Seyfried, PhD, Miriam draws on a decade of experience to provide comprehensive guidelines that specifically address the many diet and lifestyle challenges associated with a cancer diagnosis.
Miriam is a leading voice in the keto movement. Her passion for helping others implement this diet comes directly from her personal experience. Her son Raffi was diagnosed with a brain tumor in December 2004. Standard of care therapies failed to stop the relentless progression of his disease, and it became painfully clear that she needed to switch gears quickly. That is what originally led her to Dr. Thomas Seyfried’s research supporting the use of the ketogenic diet for cancer.
Beyond cancer, Miriam integrates nutritional strategies with metabolic therapies and lifestyle modifications to develop personalized treatments that address a broad spectrum of conditions that are currently considered intractable, including age-related, neurodegenerative, and bariatric diseases. Miriam lives in Montana.

Dr Chris Knobbe. sight, vegetable oils, macular degeneration
Chris A. Knobbe, MD. Researcher, ophthalmologist, Associate Clinical Professor Emeritus
Chris Knobbe, is a physician, ophthalmologist, nutrition researcher, author, speaker, public health advocate, and the founder of two nonprofit organizations: Ancestral Health Foundation and Cure AMD Foundation. Since 2015, Dr. Knobbe has given scores of presentations and achieved international academic recognition for his work on the dangers of highly polyunsaturated vegetable oils. Dr. Knobbe’s goals are altruistic and humanitarian; he accepts no compensation for his work in this field.
Eye physician and surgeon, Chris Knobbe, had been in practice nearly 20 years when, in 2013, he asked himself the question, “Could macular degeneration be a ‘Westernized disease’? Could AMD be a disease that is the result of a Westernized diet?” That question would forever change his life.
Dr. Knobbe began his practice of ophthalmology in 1994, after completing his residency training at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, in Denver, Colorado, USA. He was certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology in 1997 and has remained board-certified since then.

Gemma Kochis, ketosis, Nutrition
Gemma Kochis, co-founder of Keto-Mojo
Gemma graduated from UC Berkeley, headed to a career in diplomacy, but her passion for wine ultimately led her to the wine industry and becoming a certified sommelier. In 2015, the ketogenic lifestyle profoundly changed Gemma’s life. A breast cancer survivor with autoimmune issues, she was a product of the dietary guidelines – a carbaholic who had battled weight her whole life. Shocked at the price of testing ketones, Gemma and her husband Dorian, founded Keto-Mojo in 2017 to give back, bringing down the price of ketone testing by 80%.
They have since attended and spoken at numerous conferences globally, working extensively with the ketogenic community to understand the many facets of the scientific underpinnings which lead to overall medical benefits. They founded the Ketogenic Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity, which fosters Ketogenic Education, Medical Research, and Information. She is now devoted to promoting the efficacy of the ketogenic lifestyle to enable everyone to learn to live a healthy and full life! In this video, she shares her vast knowledge of wine to help you select amazing wines that won’t kick her you of ketosis.

Hello there, I'm Diane Kopelakis, M.S., R.D. I call myself “The Evolved Dietitian” because I've had to evolve and reform myself from some significant nutritional falsehoods that we've been fed over the last 50+ years regarding the needs of the human body.

Professionally speaking, I am a registered and licensed dietitian with 30 years combined experience in clinical dietetics, community nutrition, fitness and wellness coaching with an admiration for alternative medicine and an absolute love for bringing it all together to help others. I've counseled over thousands of clients with a broad-spectrum of health and wellness issues and continue to do so via a functional nutrition-based approach that welcomes various medicinal modes to amplify the body’s response to nutritional therapy. I will continue to evolve with science. Let's evolve together!
