Nice to meet you!
Hi, I’m Karen Kornick, a Plant-Based Nutritionist, Registered Nurse (RN), and Health Educator. I have over 20 years of experience in the medical field, helping individuals reverse or prevent chronic diseases. I specialize in helping individuals and families prevent and reverse chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, and weight management challenges. But it’s not just about disease management—I’m passionate about making healthy eating easy, fun, and practical for busy families!
As the founder of Veggie Vibes RN, I offer personalized wellness plans that focus on plant-based nutrition and lasting lifestyle changes. Whether you’re looking to prevent illness, manage your weight, or just get healthier, I’m here to help. My approach is all about discovering the root of your health concerns and guiding you towards sustainable, long-term results.
I work closely with my clients, offering one-on-one and group consultations that are tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. I’ve worked with all ages—from running cooking classes for teens to helping adults adopt healthier habits. My goal is to create a supportive, inclusive environment where you feel empowered to take control of your health and well-being.
At Veggie Vibes RN, I believe everyone deserves to live a life free from the limitations of chronic illness and thrive in mind, body, and spirit. Let’s work together to make healthy living simple, enjoyable, and sustainable for you and your family!
