The Learning Lab |  Is Protein another Health Trend or Worth the Hype?

Amaris Garza is a Registered Dietitian with six years of experience in retail dietetics and strategy. Born and raised in Austin, Texas, she holds a Nutritional Sciences degree with a minor in Psychology from Texas A&M University (Whoop!). Her mission is to make nutrition knowledge accessible to support the wellness of individuals and their loved ones.

This initiative began on the Nutrition Services Team at H-E-B, where she provided personalized guidance to help patients achieve their wellness goals. Now, as a member of the Wellness Nutrition Strategy Team, Amaris combines her understanding of customer needs with her nutritional knowledge to integrate wellness into the grocery shopping experience in-store and digitally. These efforts have reached thousands across the state of Texas, and she is excited to continue empowering more Texans and their families.

Outside of her passion for nutrition, Amaris enjoys spending time with her husband, family, friends, and her two well-loved cats. Her hobbies include soaking up the Texas sun, exploring new places, and baking her favorite sweets.
