Bio: Ashley Koff, RD

Ashley Koff, RD, leads the national conversation on truly personalized nutrition. She's translated her 25+ years of practitioner experience into a proven system, 'BNP' (better not perfect), to help you identify and make better nutrition choices more often. She's the founder of The Better Nutrition Program and the founding Nutrition Director for the University of California at Irvine's Susan Samueli Institute's Integrative and Functional Medicine Fellowship.

Koff has a new book available in January 2026 on GLP-1 optimization from Harper Collins and offers certification for it for coaches and practitioners. She's also the author of two consumer publications, Recipes for IBS and Mom Energy, and a contributor to three practitioner publications. She was also the on-air dietitian for three reality TV shows and a regular contributing expert for national and local media outlets. Awarded by InStyle magazine as Hollywood's Leading Nutritionist, as among CNN’s Top 100 health makers, recognized in the Top 10 Social Health Makers in Nutrition (Sharecare.com) and among the top “50 Natural Influencers” in health and nutrition to follow on Twitter (NewHope360 and Shape.com), Koff was also selected for the first list of Top 10 Registered Dietitians in the US by Today’s Dietitian.
