While there are many different ways I’m showing my support for the black community, one of the things I’m doing proactively is elevating black voices and creators on social media platforms by not only following their accounts, but also highlighting their pages to all of my audience. I have promoted many of these influencers and health gurus in the past but I thought right now would be a great time to highlight them to you in case you missed it! You will also find some new faces in here.
I truly believe diversity and equal representation in the food, health & nutrition space is a must. That’s why I’ve put together a list of 6 influencers in the health and wellness black community to follow and support. Whether you’re looking for new recipes to try, general health tips, or workout information, there’s an influencer on this list with helpful info for you. Between their high-quality content and aesthetically pleasing photos, your feed is about to burst with flavor and personality!
#1 – Creator of the Model Health Show Podcast & Bestselling author of #SleepSmarter, Shawn Stevenson

#2 – Dietitian sharing delicious, easy vegan recipes & wellness tips daily, Catherine @PlantBasedRD

#3 – Graphic artist and content creator spreading impactful and positive messages, Oh Happy Dani

#4 – Registered Dietitian Nutritionist + Recipe Developer, Marisa Moore, MBA. RDN.

#5 – Recipe developer and epic food content creator, Kevin Curry @FitMenCook
