Cass Nelson-Dooley, M. S.

I am the founder of Health First Consulting, I earned my Master of Science in ethnopharmacology. I have spent time researching ancient rainforest remedies in the jungles of Panama with medicine men and women. I started out in the health food industry, and studied natural product chemistry, ethnobotany, drug discovery, pharmacology, and nutraceutical research and development.

I have over 15 years of experience teaching doctors about integrative and functional laboratory results. In 2013, I started Health First Consulting, LLC, a medical communications company with the mission to improve human health using the written word. I have published in journals such as The Journal of Nutrition, Obesity Research, and Current Medicinal Chemistry.
