I provide writing services for nutrition and other health-related topics. I work with your company or institution to create narratives to help the public understand your products and services.

My short articles provide up-to-date information on a variety of health topics in an approachable format.

The Ask Gerda series addresses issues such as intermittent fasting, side effects of MRI dyes, lectins in foods, and nutritional needs as we age. Here’s a sample: “Ask Gerda: What Makes You Bloated?” And, “I Don’t Want to Shrink” is about keeping bones long and strong throughout adulthood.

My expertise includes dietary supplements and answering questions about what research has demonstrated and what remains to be studied.

Ask Gerda: How Do You Evaluate Supplements?” addresses common concerns about choosing supplements, while “Ask Gerda: What’s the Deal with Spirulina, Chlorella, and Chlorophyll?” might have you including chlorophyll the next time you barbecue burgers: It may help sequester unhealthy chemicals found in meats.

I also conceive and carry out interviews with leading authorities—interviews that can provide evidence of your organization’s standing and reliability.

Two examples are: “Hyperbaric Oxygen Chambers: The Proven Benefits and Possible Risks”, and “What to Know about the HPV Vaccine, Latent Infections, and Preventing Cervical Cancer.

And I draft in-depth, scientifically oriented articles that help you build credibility in the scientific community.

My articles in the goop PhD library summarize what medical science and alternative medicine knows and does not know about various health conditions, such as “Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)” and “Heart Disease.”
