Eat Well Exchange w/Ashely Carter, MS | RD| LDN

Ashley’s passion for wellness begun at a young age having both parents with type 2 diabetes and watching them try to manage their disease by making lifestyle changes. Originally from Miami, she noticed how her environment impacted her ability to achieve optimal wellness. For the past 9 years, she has been a Nutrition Educator, originally advising her peers in college as a certified peer health educator and now for families in lower income populations. Ashley earned her Bachelors of Science degree from Florida State University in Dietetics with a minor in religion and is currently pursuing her masters in Dietetics with a concentration in Health Informatics. Ashley is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and believes the way we eat is highly influenced by our families, culture, access to foods and our beliefs or religion. Ashley likes to practice holistic health and tries to incorporate mental, physical and nutrition into her interventions.Eatwell Exchange works to decrease health disparities in low-socioeconomic communities while keeping culturally relevant foods on the table. Three friends came together and wanted to change the perception of a healthy meal by putting a focus on culture. In February 2017 EatWell Exchange was born and since then we have been providing nutrition education to the populations that need it most, locally and abroad.
