Her debilitating migraines compelled her to quit her medical career. Driven by her ethical beliefs, Dr. Leila adopted a vegan lifestyle and eventually healed her migraines by following a whole food plant-based diet. This transformation led her to pursue a Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate at eCornell, affiliated with Cornell University, and a Masters of Science degree in Clinical and Public Health Nutrition from the University College of London. As an amateur martial artist, she takes a keen interest in sports nutrition and has previously contributed to a clinical handbook by authoring the chapter “Plant-based nutrition for Athletes”.![]()
