Harmony With Food
Meg is a Registered Dietitian, functional nutrition practitioner, and the dynamic host of the nationally syndicated Harmony With Food iHeartRadio show and functional nutrition podcast, airing from Boston to Florida and beyond. In addition, Meg is a weekly expert contributor on syndicated health and wellness segments across iHeart stations in Providence, Boston, Springfield, Worcester, and Cape Cod. Each episode delivers evidence-based insight into functional medicine and functional nutrition, with a strong focus on microbiome and gut health, digestion, metabolism, hormones, immunity, and whole-body balance. Topics include weight management, weight loss resistance, metabolic health, food sensitivities, vitamins, minerals, micronutrients, macronutrients, supplements, and lifestyle habits that support healing and long-term wellness. Meg brings decades of clinical experience and a practical, no-nonsense approach to helping people make informed, empowered decisions about their health journey. This nationally syndicated functional nutrition podcast delivers evidence-based insight, real conversations, and unapologetic truth. Each episode tackles topics such as: How modern medicine, Big Pharma, and symptom-based care impact health, healing, and patient outcomes GI struggles, including bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and functional nutrition strategies to support digestion and gut bacteria Hidden root causes of weight loss resistance (WLR), blood sugar imbalance, hormone disruption, and metabolic dysfunction Inflammatory issues such as joint pain, headaches, skin concerns, immune challenges, and nervous system stress Practical strategies for proactive, personalized health advocacy, self-care, boundaries, and sustainable lifestyle change Meg doesn’t play guessing games. She champions the functional medicine philosophy of “Test, Don’t Guess,” using functional nutrition testing to help listeners uncover food sensitivities, identify nutrient deficiencies, optimize vitamins and minerals, and better understand their body’s needs. Feeling stuck with vague diagnoses like IBS, SIBO, fatigue that won’t quit, anxiety, or chronic inflammation? Been told to “just eat less and exercise more”? You’re not alone. With over 20 years of experience, Meg empowers listeners to ditch diet drama and reclaim their health through functional lab testing, data-driven insight, and her proven six-step functional nutrition methodology. This approach supports lasting results and is also reflected in her evidence-based nutrition weight loss course, designed to help patients and listeners address digestion, metabolism, hormones, energy, gut health, blood sugar regulation, and immune balance—areas conventional medicine often overlooks. Meg specializes in digestive health, food sensitivities, weight loss resistance, and metabolic health, blending science, nutrition coaching, and advocacy in every episode. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Saint Joseph University in West Hartford, Connecticut, and completed postgraduate studies at the University of Connecticut School of Allied Health. Through expert interviews, practical advice, and evidence-based conversations, Harmony With Food offers a grounded, holistic approach to functional medicine, nutrition, and modern wellness—helping people take control of their health, habits, and healing, one episode at a time.
