Ashley Kitchens, MPH, RDN, LDN, is a nationally recognized plant-based dietitian, spokesperson, and nutrition consultant. Ashley founded her company "Plant Centered Nutrition" with the intention of providing approachable plant-based nutrition information to her clients, community, and media audience. Ashley is regularly seen in national media outlets such as Fox News, VegNews, Vegetarian Times, Eating Well, The Times Weekly, Forbes, Newsweek, and Health.com, providing comments and education on various nutrition related topics. She is a trusted source with over 10 years of experience practicing as a plant-based dietitian. She also partners and collaborates with plant-based friendly brands through social media, speaking engagements, her podcast, and many more platforms. Ashley grew up on an Angus cattle farm in small-town Indiana. As you might guess, meat and dairy were a big part of daily life. Unfortunately, so were GI issues like chronic constipation. For years, Ashley was told to manage her issues with medication instead of considering the food she was putting into her body. Ashley earned her Masters of Public Health and Nutrition from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and became a registered dietitian in 2012. But, even after all that, her GI issues didn’t completely go away. It wasn’t until she did personalized research to dive deep into her own life and her own eating habits that she noticed a significant change. For her, this meant transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle. After that transition, she knew there were others who could benefit from a diet filled with more plants. She also knew it was critical for the coaching they received to be based on a deep understanding of their unique situation. That’s when she realized why she became a dietitian. Ashley made it her mission to help others transition to a plant-centered way of eating through a holistic approach and intuitive eating practices.

I'm a board-certified physician in both Emergency Medicine and Obesity Medicine, and founder of Highland Longevity, a concierge longevity clinic in Fort Worth, Texas. My perspective on metabolic health is shaped by both clinical expertise and personal experience. I lost 87 pounds using GLP-1 medications—but made the common mistake of losing significant muscle in the process. That experience drove me to redesign my entire approach: I subsequently lost an additional 17 pounds of pure fat while preserving lean tissue. This journey transformed how I practice medicine and gave me firsthand insight into the challenges my patients face. With over 6,000 clinical hours in emergency medicine, I've seen the downstream consequences of metabolic disease—and became convinced that the real opportunity lies in prevention and optimization, not just acute intervention. I founded Highland Longevity to bridge the gap between reactive sick care and proactive health optimization. My practice focuses on medical weight loss, hormone optimization, and advanced diagnostics including DEXA body composition analysis and VO2 max testing. I emphasize evidence-based, physician-guided protocols using only FDA-approved medications or properly compounded pharmaceuticals. I speak and write about the science of sustainable weight loss, muscle preservation during caloric deficit, GLP-1 medications, hormone optimization, and the metabolic adaptations that make weight management so challenging for most people. Expertise: Obesity Medicine, GLP-1 Therapy, Metabolic Health, Longevity Medicine, Hormone Optimization, Body Composition

Her work focuses on preventing common GLP-1 pitfalls such as muscle loss, metabolic slowdown, and rebound weight gain.
