Welcome to Grey Matters
Your brain isn’t a side hustle — it’s the CEO of everything. Mood, focus, resilience, joy. And yet...most of us were never taught how to actually care for it.
Grey Matters is here to change that.
I’m Nikki Drummond, Board-Certified Clinical Nutritionist, Neuroscience researcher, and founder of NeuroFit Nutrition, aka “NeuroFit Nikki.” I believe when your brain feels right, everything else clicks. This publication is your brain’s new best friend — packed with science that makes sense, tools you’ll actually use, and just enough nerdy curiosity to help you dial in focus, calm the chaos, protect your memory, and feel fully you again — from the inside out.
What We Believe:
The brain is not broken. It's adaptive.
Symptoms are signals, not flaws. The body always chooses survival first — my job is to help decode what it’s been trying to say.Gut health drives brain health. Period.
You can’t meditate your way out of neurotransmitter chaos if your gut is inflamed. We start at the root.Food is molecular information.
Every bite you eat becomes your thoughts, your mood, your memory. Nutrition isn’t just fuel — it’s code.Data over dogma.
I don’t follow fads. I follow patterns in blood work, neurotransmitter labs, and clinical outcomes. Your body doesn’t lie — wellness trends do.Mitochondria are queen.
No energy, no function. If your cells are starving, so is your focus, your hormones, and your resilience.You are not lazy, unmotivated, or broken.
You’re probably inflamed, depleted, and wired-but-tired. We fix the chemistry so the spark can return.Healing isn’t linear — but it is trackable.
Progress might not be loud, but it leaves clues: better sleep, clearer thoughts, more stable moods. I’ll show you how to measure it.There’s no “one size fits all” — but there is a system.
The BRAIN Method is designed to personalize healing through testing, food, and nervous system regulation — without making it complicated.Modern life is rigged against your biology.
So we fight smarter. With science, strategy, and sometimes, salt water and sunlight.Empowered clients change the system.
When you understand your brain, your blood, and your biology — you become your own best advocate. And no one can gaslight that.
