24. Bridging Evidence-Based and Holistic Nutrition Practices

Megan Martineau and Caitlin Cipriano Episode 24

Can holistic practices and evidence-based nutrition really work together? In this episode of The Vibrantly You® Podcast, Megan and Caitlin explore how women can support their fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum health with a combined approach to wellness.

They break down what holistic nutrition actually means, how to balance it with research-backed strategies, and how to navigate the overwhelm that often comes with nutrition advice during the perinatal season. From managing iron levels in pregnancy to reducing postpartum depression risk with omega-3s — this conversation is full of practical, real-life examples and simple starting points.

Whether you’re trying to conceive, expecting, or deep in postpartum recovery, you’ll learn how to nourish your body with both science and intuition.

Topics Covered:

  • What “holistic nutrition” and “evidence-based” really mean
  • Real-life examples for fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum
  • Nutritional support for hormone balance and mental health
  • How to apply small, sustainable changes when you’re overwhelmed
