Who I Am

I’m Andrew Belaveshkin, MD, PhD, a medical advisor, advocating a healthy lifestyle grounded in science and evidence-based medicine. I help each person become an expert in their own health.

I am a bestselling author of “What and When to Eat” (2019) and “The Will to Live: Self-Help Guide for Conscious Health” (2020), as well as the author of 50+ scientific publications. The book “What and When to Eat” has been published in 200K+ copies and translated into multiple languages, including English, Polish, Russian, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Slovak, Ukrainian, and more. I also created the online course “Healthy Habits” and run the educational blog, where I teach the basics of nutrition, stress management, posture, and dopamine production.



As an industry-recognized nutritional expert and TEDx speaker, I promote effective strategies for strengthening and maintaining physical, psychological, and social health, while fostering a healthy environment so that everyone can discover and realize their potential.

My philosophy: Health is not everything—but without health, everything is nothing.
