About Esther B.

For nearly 30 years, I’ve been doing one thing: helping women stop being gaslit by a medical system that was never designed with them in mind.I’m Esther Blum, functional medicine dietitian, menopause specialist, TEDx speaker, host of The Midlife Realignment postcast, and five-time bestselling author. My TEDx talk, “Birth Control, Wine, and Antidepressants: The Prescription Pad of Misogyny,” says everything you need to know about why I do this work and how I do it.Women in midlife are being handed sleeping pills when they need progesterone. Antidepressants when they need estrogen. And a pat on the head when they need answers. I built my career on blowing that up, and I’m actively working at every level, clinical, educational, and systemic, to change what women can expect from their healthcare.In my private practice, I work one on one with women who are done accepting “this is just aging” as a diagnosis. Through advanced functional lab testing, personalized hormone protocols, and nutrition strategies that actually fit real life, we rebuild energy, metabolism, sleep, and confidence from the inside out.I’m also known as Gwyneth Paltrow’s menopause mentor, a repeat corporate speaker for organizations including Apollo Global Management and Vista Equity Partners, and the author of See Ya Later, Ovulator, Cavewomen Don’t Get Fat, Eat Drink and Be Gorgeous, Secrets of Gorgeous, and The Eat Drink and Be Gorgeous Project.My work has been featured in goop, Oprah Daily, Forbes, Time, The New York Times, Well+Good, and more. I’ve appeared on the Today Show, ABC-TV, and Good Day NY, and I’ve been voted Best Nutritionist by Manhattan Magazine.I hold a Master’s in Clinical Nutrition from NYU, a BS in Clinical Nutrition from Simmons College, and I’m credentialed as an RD, CDN, and CNS.When I’m not in the clinic, at the podium, or in a meeting shaking something loose, you’ll find me in Connecticut cooking, hiking, or blasting 80s music by the fire pit with my family.If you’re ready to stop being dismissed and start getting answers, you’re in the right place.
