PROFILE:

Dr. Artemis Morris is a leading expert in Mediterranean Nutrition, Women’s Wellness, and Lifestyle Medicine. A Naturopathic Doctor, Licensed Acupuncturist, researcher, author and international speaker, she draws on over two decades of clinical experience—and generations of ancestral Mediterranean wisdom from the Mediterranean island of Crete—to help patients and participants in her programs reduce inflammation, prevent chronic disease, and live with vitality.

As founder and medical director of Artemis Wellness Center in Milford, CT, she is passionate about empowering individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve optimal well-being through holistic nutrition, functional and integrative medicine and a Mediterranean style of life.  She also offers online programs inspired by science-backed Mediterranean Nutrition, including her upcoming Breast Health Program, designed to shift the 1-in-8 statistic of breast disease in women. She also hosts She Care, a free online space for honest conversations about women’s health.

A frequent guest on television and Kara’s Cures, Dr. Artemis provides accessible insights on enhancing health through diet, herbs, supplements and integrative and functional medicine deeply rooted in her Mediterranean heritage—a source of cultural wisdom and ongoing research. Her academic contributions include roles as Professor of Nutrition for the Master’s in Functional Nutrition and Naturopathic Medical School at the University of Bridgeport, Co-Academic Director for the Master’s in Integrative Health and Healing at The Graduate Institute, and former Director of the Integrative Healing Center at Masonic Hospital in Connecticut. Her ethnographic doctoral research in Crete, her ancestral home, explored the therapeutic foods and herbs of the Mediterranean Diet for Diabetes and remains a source of inspiration in her practice of traditional medicine. Today, her ongoing love of research includes a pilot study on extra virgin olive oil and inflammatory cardiovascular markers with the Yale School of Public Health.  She’s also the co-author of The Anti-Inflammatory Diet for Dummies, in its 3rd revision and author of A Naturopathic Doctor’s Guide to Wellness for Immune Support.
