Dr. Beverly Yates has spent more than 30 years helping people understand complicated health problems.
She began as an electrical engineer trained at MIT before leaving Silicon Valley to become a Naturopathic Doctor.
That combination still shapes the way she communicates today.
She sees systems. She notices connections. And she knows that information is only useful when people can understand what it means for their lives.
She listens closely, sees how the pieces of a complex system connect, and explains it so clearly that people remember it and act on it.
Whether she’s talking about blood sugar, stress, sleep, menopause, nutrition, or metabolic health, Dr. Yates brings audiences into the conversation rather than speaking over them.
Discover how nutrition, meal timing, exercise and strength training, sleep, and stress work together to influence blood sugar throughout the day and night.
Ideal for: Corporate wellness, healthcare conferences, diabetes organizations and community health events.
What happens when you eat well—but stress is high and sleep is poor? Dr. Yates helps audiences understand the often-overlooked connections between glucose, stress, recovery, sleep, energy, and everyday life.
Ideal for: Employee wellness, leadership programs, professional conferences and healthcare audiences.
Explore the intersections of perimenopause, menopause, sleep, stress, body composition, nutrition, and metabolic health.
Ideal for: Women’s conferences, corporate wellness, women’s leadership events and employee resource groups.
Health is influenced by more than personal choices. This talk explores how food quality, recreation, access to green space, air, water, movement, rest, and community environments contribute to health.
Ideal for: Public health, community organizations, corporations and civic events.
In The Yates Protocol: 5 Simple Steps to Fix Your Blood Sugar and Reverse Type 2 Diabetes, Dr. Beverly Yates brings together the five lifestyle areas at the heart of her work:
