About Betty Murray, MS, CN, IFMCP
Nutrition expert, certified functional medicine practitioner, and speaker Betty Murray, PhD-Candidate, MS, CN, IFMCP helps women 40+ harness their hormones to lose weight, optimize sleep, restore energy, and thrive in life. During her research for her PhD, Betty made 4 key discoveries that lead to hormone imbalances that plague women over 40.
Betty’s interest in nutrition and functional medicine came from her own health struggles. In her early 30s, Betty was diagnosed with colitis. She just knew there was more she could do to get to the root of her disease! Betty’s tenacity led to a 25+ year educational journey that included immersion into the world of nutrition, biochemistry, and functional medicine that has become the backbone of her approach to restoring health. Since then she has focused on the intersection of women’s hormones and their complex interplay in immune, gut and metabolic function.
She is the host of This Functional Life Podcast and the founder and CEO of Living Well Dallas Functional Medicine Center.
