In this episode of The Whole Health Podcast, Dr. Kelly J. Blodgett and Megan Barnett sit down with Marné Minard, nutritionist chef and co-owner of Bastion, a health-focused restaurant redefining what accessible, nutrient-dense food can look like. Marné shares how her background in nutrition inspired her to create a menu free from gluten, dairy, refined sugar, seed oils, soy, and corn—without sacrificing flavor or comfort. Together, they explore how food can become a powerful tool for healing, why simplicity matters in nutrition, and how Bastion is helping people make healthier choices in everyday life.

Topics Discussed:
-Creating a Restaurant Rooted in Wellness
How Marné turned her education in nutrition into a thriving restaurant model focused on seasonal, whole-food ingredients that support healing and reduce inflammation.

-Making Healthy Eating Practical and Delicious
Why Bastion focuses on familiar comfort foods with clean ingredients, helping people transition into healthier habits without feeling restricted or overwhelmed.

-Listening to the Body & Simplifying Nutrition
Marné’s perspective on cravings, intuition, and learning to trust your body’s signals while building a sustainable relationship with food and health.
