Mark’s education in nutrition and fitness began as a collegiate athlete. Mark received a full scholarship to play division 1 soccer at Cal State University Northridge where he studied Kinesiology. After college, his education in nutrition and fitness continued while becoming one of the top fitness models in Los Angeles, which led to experimenting with every type of diet: low calorie, low carbohydrate, stimulant based, etc.

After years of restrictive dieting, Mark discovered the power of Blood Sugar Stabilization. This was the final piece to the puzzle of how the body truly works and the answer he was searching for. The Venice Nutrition System was first created by Mark Macdonald while working as a nutrition consultant and sales manager at Gold’s Gym Northridge. He spent endless years perfecting the system. He later owned and operated Venice Nutrition, Venice, located next to the famous Gold’s Beach Venice, where he went on to coach and shift the lives of thousands of people. During this time Mark also worked as a guest speaker at corporate events, charity events, company meetings, along with TV appearances as the nutrition expert.

After years of perfecting the system and touching the lives of thousands of people Mark was ready to reach the masses. This lead to the creation of the Venice Nutrition Online system. Mark’s lifelong dream of being able to reach the masses and teach them the power of nutrition has been achieved. Venice Nutrition continues its steady growth with members in every state, nutrition centers spread across the country and a software system that is the best in the industry.

Mark is also founder and Chair of Venice Nutrition’s Medical Board, the IBNFC (International Board of Nutrition and Fitness Coaching). The IBNFC has created the most dynamic Nutrition Certification process in the Health Professional Industry. The IBNFC has certified thousands of Nutrition Coaches throughout the Continental US. In addition, Mark and his management team created the platform for Venice Nutrition to partner with hundreds of health professional establishments through Venice Nutrition's licensing programs.

With Venice Nutrition’s Workplace Wellness division, Mark and his team are taking the country by storm, helping businesses and their employees improve their overall quality of life through nutrition.

When she began this journey over fifteen years ago, she knew only that she wanted to be in the health care field. She lost her mother at a young age and did not fully understand what exactly what happened to her. At the time, she was too young for any technical explanation, and felt helpless and powerless to do anything to change the outcome of that crisis.

That is when she made up her mind to never again be in the dark with regard to her own health or the health of those she cared about. She ended up choosing nutrition and dietetics for two reasons: first, to gain an understanding of the general mechanisms of the human body, and specifically, the relationship of good food and good nutrition to positive health outcomes; secondly, because she has an insatiable passion for it. She knew after she finished her first nutrition course that she had found her niche. It is an ever-changing field that offers constant stimulation and opportunity for new growth and learning. She is fortunate to practice something that she truly enjoys doing everyday. Her client's victories are also her victories, and it is always a thrill for her to know that she has made a difference in their lives. As a result of the education she has received and the experience she has gained, she is now in a position to offer her skills and knowledge to those who need it. For her, being capable of filling the position of Director of Dietetics for the IBNFC (International Board of Nutrition and Fitness Coaching) is an honor and provides her with the opportunity to help educate thousands more people each year about nutrition and fitness.

At the age of 20, something tragic yet spectacular happened to Dr. Bryen Bell. As a competitive collegiate rugby athlete, Dr. Bell suffered a serious neck injury while playing in a game. When no traditional doctors or medical procedures could help, he sought out the help of a local Chiropractor. After an exam, x-rays and a series of corrective spinal adjustments, Dr. Bell’s pain, numbness and dysfunction were removed and his health was restored again! Opening the nerve channels through corrective chiropractic adjustments and spinal alignment worked amazingly well.

Today, Dr. Bell owns and operates BAC To Health Chiropractic Group of Beverly Hills and serves as the Clinic and Wellness Director. He is the founder of BACfit, an elite ergonomic program for business and corporate professionals. Dr. Bell is dedicated to making non-drug solutions the first choice in health care.

He is loved by his patients not only for his professionalism, but also for his warm, caring nature.

Dr. Bell received his undergraduate degree for the University of Portland in Business Management (B.S.), and his Chiropractic Degree (D.C.) as well as a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology (B.Sc.) from Cleveland Chiropractic College, Los Angeles. He is a current EMT and, as a youth, earned the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout in 1989.
