VERA TWEED

I've worked in publishing for over 25 years, as a journalist, magazine and book editor, blogger, web developer, and publisher. In 1997, I began working with the publisher of a best-selling book about nutrition, and have continued to produce health content. Between 2000 and 2003, I was the editor in chief of GreatLife, a health magazine distributed through health food stores throughout the United States, and have continued writing about health on a freelance contract basis, covering dietary supplements, trends, food, fitness, and other aspects of a healthy lifestyle... I'm a contributing editor for Better Nutrition, Amazing Wellness, and Newsmax magazines and newsletters... I look for scientific information that can be translated into practical things we can do in our everyday lives, without fad diets or extreme fitness programs that are difficult or impossible for most people to maintain. And, I work out ways to turn healthier habits into pleasant experiences.
