I’m Meg O’Rourke, a Registered Dietitian and Functional Nutritionist with over 20 years of experience helping people resolve digestive issues, weight loss resistance, food sensitivities, and fatigue that conventional medicine often overlooks.
​
The truth is, most medical doctors receive little to no training in nutrition, the microbiome, or the chemicals in our food supply. That’s where I come in. My mission is simple: to change the way you think about food and to help you stop dieting for good.

My Philosophy
I use a “Non-Diet” functional nutrition approach that goes far beyond calories in vs. calories out or outdated tools like BMI. Food is not just fuel — it can be the root cause of skin problems, joint pain, GI distress, fatigue, and stubborn weight gain.
​
Instead of guessing, I say “Test, don’t guess.” With advanced testing in nutrigenomics, the microbiome, micronutrient deficiencies, and food sensitivities, I help you uncover what’s really driving your symptoms. Then, together, we create a plan tailored to your body — not a one-size-fits-all diet.
My Story
I know firsthand how frustrating it is to be dismissed by conventional medicine. Early in my life, I nearly died when doctors ignored a serious condition and sent me home. Later, a surgical complication left me needing five more surgeries. That experience fueled my passion for becoming my own health advocate — and teaching my clients to do the same.
​
I don’t want you to feel ignored, brushed off with a generic diagnosis like “IBS,” or told to just “eat less and exercise more.” My work is about digging deeper, getting real answers, and helping you regain control of your health.
​
Client Success Stories
The results speak for themselves.
One of my clients, a 48-year-old healthcare worker, struggled with debilitating eczema for more than a decade. After functional testing and gut-focused treatment, her eczema cleared completely:
​
“Not one doctor asked about my diet. But Meg did. And now, my hands are healed — no gloves, no creams, no steroids. Just the right foods and guidance. She saved my skin!”
​
Others have resolved years of digestive distress, broken through weight loss plateaus, reversed fatigue, and finally felt in control of their health again.
