About me

Empowering Generations Through Gut Health, Nutrition & Legacy Wellness


My name is Charmene M. Vega, but most know me as Mama Vega®. I am a fourth-generation holistic nutritionist, educator, and wellness consultant with a mission rooted in truth, transformation, and MS Mama Strength™.


For over four decades, I’ve taught, cooked, and coached women to reclaim their energy, heal their gut, and live with legacy in mind. My background blends cultural food wisdom, modern nutrition science, and compassion you can feel from the very first consultation.


I specialize in:

  • The gut-brain connection
  • Natural hormone balance
  • Emotional eating recovery
  • Food label decoding and pantry overhauls
  • Grocery shopping support rooted in your budget, culture, and lifestyle
  • Creating long-term wellness plans for women, caregivers, and legacy-builders


When we work together, I see your whole story—not just your symptoms. I listen to your body, family history, food habits, and gut feelings. Then I help you map a path to balance, healing, and clarity.


Because healing is not just about food.

It’s about purpose.

It’s about breaking cycles.

It’s about building a life you don’t need to escape from.

And baby, if you’ve been told “you just need to lose weight” or “you’re getting older,”


I’m here to tell you: You need the right guide.

Let’s take this journey together—your gut is ready.
