- About Dr. Mary Claire Haver and The Galveston Diet -
Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a passionate women’s health advocate who believes women in midlife deserve to live their best life. She cuts through fat-shaming and fads, so women are empowered with the science behind anti-inflammation nutrition.
Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a wife, mom, physician, and entrepreneur who has devoted her adult life to women’s health. As a Board-Certified OBGYN in the Houston area, Dr. Haver has delivered thousands of babies, completed thousands of well-woman exams, counseled patients, taught residents, and did everything an academic professor and OBGYN could do.
As her patient population aged, Dr. Haver was overwhelmed with the number of complaints and concerns her patients had with weight gain while going through menopause. For years, she told her patients to eat less and exercise more. It wasn't until she experienced the changes of menopause and mid-life weight gain that she realized this advice doesn't work and ultimately led to her creating and developing a new program, The Galveston Diet.
The Galveston Diet is the first and only nutrition program created by a Female OBGYN, designed for women in menopause. The Galveston Diet helps women reach their health and wellness goals through an anti-inflammatory approach to nutrition. Dr. Haver believes in food's power to combat inflammation and highly recommends the unlimited benefits of intermittent fasting. As part of her ongoing research, she became certified in Culinary Medicine in 2019, specializing in medical nutrition. - Věda a technologie
2 years after this post, and I want you to know people like me are watching. I am 57 and struggling as most my age. I ordered your book tonight. Thank you for being a resource!
I thank you! You should have a program for physicians.
I just heard about this diet yesterday 6th Jan 2024 when it came up on Diary of a CEO recommended for you. Now I'm intrigued and watching everything I can about it. I plan on starting it as soon as I can find a video with the meal plans on it. I'm a 55 yr old post menopausal woman in Melbourne Australia. My starting weight is 78.5kg I'm 167cm tall medium build. I'll let you know how I'm progressing 😊
Awe! You were my ob years ago but I think you moved or left . Love that you have a channel and sharing your knowledge.
Wow, thank you!
So grateful that I found you Mary 🌸 finally some common sense for menopausal women 👏🏼😌🇦🇺
You are most welcome!
Sorry posted that last comment before I was finished. In my researching, I came across your CZcams page. What you are sharing all makes sense to me, so I am giving your suggestions a try. I have been intermittent fasting and working on adding anti inflammatory foods and eliminating the inflammatory ones. I started taking fish oil. Eating more probiotics. I have even embraced drinking my coffee black, which I never thought I would do. I am only on day 6 and I feel amazing! My energy is back! The hurting all over is subsiding. My mind feels less fuzzy. I am encouraged by all of the changes that I am feeling and seeing in myself in such a short amount of time. I am now a believer in what and when i eat is the medicine I need to stay healthy and feel better! Hearing the information from you because you are a health professional added weight, but even greater is the fact that you are doing it for your own self because you have experienced what I am experiencing! No one tells you what to really do about all these tremendous changes that goes on in our bodies when we begin the process of menopause. I am so thankful that I found your channel and even more thankful that I am following your advice!
Love this so much!!!!!! Keep us posted about your continued progress!
I seen an ad and ended up here. Im 38 and have the symptoms listed in the ad plus my mothers side go thru menopause early. (Edit after watching)oh I didnt realize u were selling this solution.....
Almost three years I just found u.
I also have gastroparesis
I am so happy to hear your enthusiasm about women's health care during and after menopause and your scientific approach. I am 60 yrs of age, not over weight but have issues with inflammation, arthritis, bone loss, fatigue and many digestive issues. I think I am doing the right diet and exercise many times a week, yoga, swimming and walking in the woods. Is your diet mostly for weight loss or is there a possibility for help with my above issues? Thanks for doing what you do!!!
We can definitely help with that. We have a "maintenance" program with the same scientific principles.
Hi there Dr. Haver! I just wanted to give you a shout out and a sincere thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. I am 48 yrs old and deep into peri menopause. I had gained a significant amount of weight and was feeling quite poorly health wise. I started making some changes about a year or so ago by cutting back on what I was eating and exercising. I had asked my primary doctor about the keto diet and she said absolutely not to do it. But I do have a problem with carbs and I just feel like I needed to do something about what I feel is an addiction to them. So I did. Gave up sugar. Gave up the sugar substitutes except stevia. Gave up my diet soda. I did lose weight. About 67 lbs. so far. But I still felt so tired and sluggish with no energy. My whole body hurt. I have been researching about inflammation in the body because of the autoimmune disorders in my family and because I suffer from a lot of arthritis. It is of concern to me at my age to be as healthy as I can be, feel good, and be able to do the things that I enjoy.
Thank you so much!
I've had rheumatoid arthritis for 40 years. It helped to keep my weight down; less pressure on joints. Good luck.
Hormone is down that's why
Her story was my story minus the delivering of babies. My PCP was no help at all. Basically the weight gain was my fault. I just gave up. Also, not one physician and I live in Boston with access to a lot of doctors recommended HRT. It was never once brought up. SMH
What is a Culinary Medicine Specialist? I'm a Registered Dietitian and I have never heard of that credential. Thanks!
This is what I’m experiencing. I’ve been able to diet (keto usually) and exercise and lose lots of fat, but now that I’m 39 and have recently become aware of some peri-menopausal symptoms (like when did it get so hot in here? 😅), not to mention I had a baby at 37, so my hormones still have not levelled out. I’ve been trying everything I’ve used in the past to get back to a healthy weight, and it only took me half way, and now nothing is working. I found out about your book, and you, yesterday and I’m confident this will be what gets me back to pre-pregnancy health. Thank you!
I am in the same boat! Had a baby at 36, now I'm 38, and nothing is working. I tried all my go tos to get inshape and after months nothing changed. I'm hoping reading her book and working on getting my hormones leveled I'll get there. Good luck to you!
@@ileaodessa good luck to you!! It’s so hard finding a new way to health PLUS being in the midst of the toddler years! These kids are wild lol
Just purchased your book hoping it will help with these evere hot flashes. I am 50 and didnt even realize all my symptoms 2 yrs ago were premenopausal. My dr was pescrib steroids 4 inflamtion in my arms/hands, had me do a mamogram because sharp pain in breasts n stress test on my heart because heart papilations. They told me nothing was wrong. Thankfully my weight is good but everything else is out of wack. No sleep n miserable. Im at the pont 4 relief and looking into estrogen cream. What r yr thoughts on that?
Oh my goodness this is ME!!!!
Can you answer a quick question for me? If I’m exercising moderately, aren’t I burning fewer calories? And thus taking longer to lose weight?
Awesome!
Glad you think so!
Love this. One thing i disagree with is the high quality protein is not only fish. The current red meat studied are based on grocery store factory farmed beef. Eating an unhealthy animal that is given hormones is inflammatory. . However; if you eat a local ,healthy grass fed animal, the inflammatory bad fats are no longer there. (I am educated in this.)
I agree that fatty fish and oysters are a superior protein, but not everyonecan afford that everyday. You were led by the science and in a different direction than you were taught.. theres more.
I think you and Dr. Kruse(neurosurgeon)would do wonderful things. You both were doctors , who noticed the missing link and ran with it. Heros in my eyes.
I found you on tiktok. You were talking about minoxidil for menopausal hair loss. Can you post a link where to get that? Thanks!

New Eye ball from Tick Tock. Lost 43 lbs Dr. Berg Healthy Keto Nov 2018- May 2019. Kept the weight off till Nov 2019 Dad died then Covid, worked hard to get to 50th birthday in July 2020 up about 10lbs now up another 10-12lbs after new job and suddenly becoming a part-time empty nester. After getting Covid and all the symptoms in January I just said Stop! Currently in fast going on 48 hours my gut says thank you.
Love this story! You are most welcome.
I just signed up!!
Awesome!
If we are loosing Estrogen and this is all caused by loss of estrogen then why doesn’t taking bio-identical estradiol with the protection of progesterone help? Taking Estrogen makes me gain weight. I was fine on a low dose BCPill. Now I am taking bio identical replacement hormones and this only worked at first.
Now tell me how do I sign up for this?

I had triple negative breast cancer and a positive BRCA1, both ovaries removed. Is this program safe for me?
Absolutely! The anti-inflammatory component is critical for you!
Inflammation and aging and menopause are the markers for when the whole calories in vs calories out becomes null and void. I want to explore that deeper and add on that a person with CPTSD pushes that timeline sooner than 7 - 10 years prior to menopause. Like maybe a decade sooner because of the chronic stress.....Maybe this change shows up in our telomeres? Thank you for what you are doing Doctor!
Think about what you’re saying. “Null and void”. So basically we become medical marvels and are no longer able to die from starvation. Alert the presses! @waterdragon5418 has discovered a ground breaking miracle!!!!
What do you recommend for a appetite suppressant ?
What helped me was exercise, because it stabilizes insulin, proper hydration, avoiding sugar, waiting 4 to 5 hrs between meals without any sort of snacking in between (not even coffee or lemon water or whatever with a taste, just plain water). And I ask myself, am I hungry or do I eat bcs it’s breakfast time, lunch time etc. And I stop when I feel satiety. In my experience, the question to ask is Am I really hungry or I crave sth because I feel sad, anxious etc. in this case a walk and some fresh air is a much better fix. And the meals need to be sufficient in quantity and especially in proteins, because this offers satiety for at least, 4-5 hrs. If you feel hungry after 2 hrs, then you ate a small amount, not enough macros so you start the insulin carousel. In my experience, when I eat without being hungry first, I start craving food a lot more often. The more I eat the more cravings I got. The dr in nutrition that I follow confirmed this for me. When I space out my meals correctly, I get no increased appetite or cravings.
I got your book, read it. My question is; what are the percentages calculated from? Calories? Plate portion? Something else? If it's in the book, can you give me a page number? I will go back and re-read it. Thank you so much!!!!
We do not base it on calories but we understand that most nutrition trackers require that. If yours does then we suggest starting with 1400-1500 calories as the target or if it asks you about weight loss choose the lowest amount per week. (so if you can choose between a pound an half a pound, choose half a pound) Then set the percentages but when you are eating during the day don't worry about the total calories if you are meeting the macros percentages. If you are under the calories or over by a little it really doesn't matter. The percentages should be your focus. We have a free online community where you can ask questions too. It is made of followers and many of them are also on the diet. Here is a link to join: bit.ly/3MlTkKM

Ive been at 1095 calories and feel stuck. Going to try your ratios to see if they change anything.
Does this diet work for men?
Not you lover.
Why is it called the Galveston diet ?
I named it after the place I call home.
