Kimberly Clark
Nutritional Scientist · Mediterranean Diet Authority · Wellness Editor
Kimberly Clark is a nutritional scientist and the founding editor of the Mediterranean Diet blog. She holds a degree in nutritional science and has spent over a decade studying how traditional Mediterranean eating patterns affect heart health, blood sugar, weight and healthy ageing — then turning that research into meals people will actually cook.
She writes and edits every guide on this site, and works with our Registered Dietitian Nutritionist review team to check nutrition and clinical claims before publication. Her full biography is published on the Mediterranean Diet blog.

How she works
- Starts from primary evidence — randomized trials such as PREDIMED and the Lyon Diet Heart Study, plus long-term cohorts like the Seven Countries Study and EPIC.
- Cites every health claim so readers can check the source themselves.
- Sends clinical and nutrient content to the Registered Dietitian Nutritionist review team for review.
- Tests meals for supermarket ingredients and realistic prep times before publishing them.
- Never recommends supplements, detoxes or specific weight-loss guarantees.
