About Maxine Meyers

Maxine Meyers is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) with a deep specialisation in ketogenic and low-carbohydrate nutrition therapy. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Nutritional Science from the University of California, Davis, and a Master of Science in Nutrition Science from the prestigious Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University — one of the world’s leading nutrition research institutions.

Over her 12-year career, Maxine has worked across clinical, private practice, and digital health settings, helping individuals with obesity, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), metabolic syndrome, and chronic inflammation achieve lasting health transformations through personalised nutrition strategies. She is a recognised expert in the science of ketosis, fat adaptation, and the therapeutic applications of very-low-carbohydrate diets.

Professional Background and Experience

Maxine began her career as a clinical dietitian at a major metropolitan hospital, where she developed and managed nutrition therapy programmes for patients with complex metabolic conditions. It was during this period that she first encountered the remarkable clinical outcomes achievable through ketogenic nutrition — particularly for patients with treatment-resistant type 2 diabetes and severe obesity.

After five years in clinical practice, Maxine transitioned to private practice, founding a nutrition consultancy focused exclusively on low-carbohydrate and ketogenic dietary interventions. Her practice quickly grew through word-of-mouth referrals, driven by the consistent, measurable results her clients achieved — from significant weight loss and blood sugar normalisation to improved energy, mental clarity, and resolution of chronic inflammatory conditions.

Maxine has since expanded her reach through digital health platforms, writing, and education, becoming a trusted voice for the millions of people seeking evidence-based guidance on the ketogenic diet. She is a contributing author to Keto Creator, where she writes comprehensive, research-backed articles on keto nutrition, metabolic health, and practical strategies for long-term success.

Areas of Specialisation

Maxine’s Nutrition Philosophy

Maxine’s approach to nutrition is grounded in three core principles: evidence, individualisation, and sustainability.

“The ketogenic diet is not a fad — it is a metabolic intervention with more than a century of scientific history and a growing body of rigorous clinical evidence,” says Maxine. “But it is also not a one-size-fits-all solution. My role as a nutritionist is to take the science and translate it into a personalised, practical, and sustainable plan that fits each person’s unique physiology, lifestyle, and goals.”

Maxine is a firm believer in the power of food as medicine — the idea that what we eat profoundly shapes our health at the cellular level. She approaches every client relationship with deep curiosity, compassion, and a commitment to the most current nutritional science. She is equally comfortable discussing the biochemistry of ketogenesis with a medical professional and explaining net carbs to a complete beginner.

Her writing on Keto Creator reflects this philosophy: every article is researched thoroughly, written clearly, and designed to empower readers with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their health.

Why Maxine Writes for Keto Creator

Maxine joined Keto Creator because she recognised a critical gap in the online keto space: an abundance of misinformation, oversimplification, and commercially motivated advice, and a shortage of genuinely expert, evidence-based guidance that ordinary people can trust and act on.

“I have seen the transformative power of the ketogenic diet in my clinical practice — people reversing type 2 diabetes, losing 50 or 100 pounds, coming off medications they had been on for years. But I have also seen people fail because they were following bad advice from unqualified sources,” she explains. “Keto Creator is my platform to change that — to give people the accurate, science-backed information they need to succeed safely and sustainably.”

Every article Maxine writes is based on peer-reviewed research, clinical guidelines, and her own extensive practical experience. She is committed to transparency about what the science does and does not yet know, and to updating her content as new research emerges.

Maxine’s Personal Keto Journey

Maxine’s interest in ketogenic nutrition is not purely academic. In her early 30s, she was diagnosed with insulin resistance and struggled with energy crashes, brain fog, and stubborn weight gain despite following what she believed was a healthy diet. It was through her own research and clinical training that she discovered the ketogenic diet — and the results were transformative.

“Within six weeks of starting keto, my energy was more stable than it had ever been, my mental clarity was remarkable, and I had lost 18 pounds without counting a single calorie,” she recalls. “That personal experience gave me a level of empathy and insight into the keto journey that I simply could not have gained from textbooks alone. I know what the keto flu feels like. I know the social challenges of eating differently. And I know the extraordinary feeling of being fat-adapted.”

This personal experience, combined with her professional expertise, makes Maxine uniquely qualified to guide others through their own keto journeys.
