Family physician. Twenty-plus years in rural Tennessee. Creator of the Proper Human Diet.

Dr. Ken Berry portrait

It’s nice to meet you.

I am Dr. Ken Berry, a board-certified family physician with over two decades of experience practicing in rural Tennessee.

My journey into health and wellness advocacy started with my own struggle. I was a frustrated doctor, watching my patients (and myself) get sicker on the standard advice. The textbook said one thing. The data in front of me said another. I had to make a choice.

I grew up in Hohenwald, Tennessee. I earned my MD at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. My wife Neisha, our two children, and I now live on a farm in Holladay, Tennessee, where the way we eat reflects the way I teach.

Over twenty thousand patients have walked through my clinic in the years since. Millions more have found the work online. What I see, every day, is that people are not broken. They have been given the wrong instructions.

The Proper Human Diet is the right instructions, written down.
