Bonnie Minsky
M.A., M.P.H, L.D.N., C.N.S.

After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Education 
at The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Bonnie Minsky 
taught for several years in Chicago’s inner-city schools. Soon 
thereafter, she raised her two sons and daughter while completing 
her Master of Arts Degree in Counseling. This is when she 
discovered the importance of nutrition.

Frustrated by the inability of conventional medicine to treat 
her children’s allergies and severe learning and behavior 
problems with the teenagers she counseled, Bonnie postulated 
that many of the problems could stem from diet. When her children 
and students showed miraculous improvements from a slight 
change in diet, Bonnie saw her future.

In 1985, she founded Nutritional Concepts, Inc. Continuing to 
bolster her knowledge in all fields of health, Bonnie received a 
Master of Public Health degree from the prestigious 
School of Public Health at the University of Illinois-Chicago in 1989. 
Her next achievement would receive national attention.

Bonnie co-authored the bill that would license Nutritionists in Illinois, 
the second of its kind proposed in the United States. In 1990, 
fighting tremendous odds, the bill was passed and Bonnie was 
honored as the first Licensed Nutrition Counselor in the State of Illinois. 
Similar bills have now been passed in most states.

Bonnie is heavily involved with state and national health organizations. 
She is a Certified Nutrition Specialist with the esteemed 
American College of Nutrition. She was appointed to The Dietetic and 
Nutrition Services Board for the State of Illinois. She is a member of 
both the Illinois and American Public Health Associations. She was a 
Board Member of Citizens for Health, served as President of the 
International and American Association of Clinical Nutritionists, 
Secretary of the National Association for Public Health Food Policy Council 
in Washington D.C., and served as Vice President of 
Nutrition for Optimal Health Association.

Bonnie has also appeared on numerous radio and television programs 
and given hundreds of lectures discussing natural menopause, 
anti-aging, weight loss, and all other aspects of nutrition.

popular for treating unique issues like food intolerance and menopause, her real specialty 
is not having a specialty...she treats everyone as an individual!  

In her spare time, Bonnie loves to garden and pamper her grandchildren.

What part of your career are you most proud of?

"I had a number of minor health issues. Traditional doctors could not find anything wrong with me 
and worse were treating me like a hypochondriac. Then I went to see Bonnie. She identified the 
source of my problems as food allergies. She educated me on what to eat, how to read labels 
when grocery shopping and what supplements to take. Almost immediately I felt better than 
I had in my adult life. Thanks to Bonnie's ongoing counsel and support, years later I continue 
to feel great. Thanks, Bonnie. Susan" More Client Testimonials
