a healthy gut

Nothing beets a healthy gut!

We’re going to get right down to it. We talk about poop. A lot.

When everything is working like it should in your gut, you should be pooping about once a day. But, if something’s going on in your gut, the cycle of digestion is disrupted and everything goes haywire.

When this happens, you might experience chronic diarrhea, IBS, constipation, bloating, or heartburn. 

If you’ve experienced these symptoms, or if you’ve been diagnosed with Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, GERD, SIBO, Leaky Gut, Celiac disease, fatty liver, food sensitivities or another gut-related condition, you know they are not fun to deal with, and they can be pretty disruptive to your lifestyle.

We’ve got some good news! Our GI-specialized dietitians are experts in gut health (and poop). While we can help you navigate special diets such as the Low FODMAP, low histamine, low lactose or fructose, or Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), our goal is to help you move beyond restrictive diets. They can work with you to find solutions that will help you manage your symptoms, heal your gut, and feel better than you thought you could!

Mary Kate Meyer, MS, RDN, LD

Registered Dietitian

Hi, I’m Mary Kate. I love to try new foods and explore new restaurants and coffee shops, and even went on a homemade bagel-making kick this summer! My interest in nutrition started in middle school with my mom adding more veggies to our meals and making them taste interesting and fun, which sparked my interest to help her cook and learn more about how the food we eat impacts us every day. Over the years, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact that proper nutrition and daily fueling can have on overall health. Like many of my clients, I have faced challenges with my own gut health and hormonal changes, so I can relate to the frustrations and fatigue that come with seeking relief. Through personalized care and tailored nutrition, I discovered the keys to my health, and my goal is to help others bring their sense of vitality back!

Claudia Ferri, MS, RD, LD

Registered Dietitian

¡Hola! Ciao! My name is Claudia. I was born in Venezuela and raised there by my parents who are Italian immigrants. I met my (Italian) husband while living in Florida, which made my parents very proud. Most recently, I lived in Denver before we relocated to Kansas City.

Thanks to my Italian roots, my parents were always very attentive to the quality and source of foods we had. I built on that foundation during my experience as a competitive swimmer, where I became interested in the connection between nutrition and athletic performance.

As a practicing Registered Dietitian, I have become passionate about the importance and pivotal role that our gut plays on our metabolism, including mental health, hormones, and the immune system. For the last 10 years, I channeled that passion into my work as an oncology dietitian.

I believe in taking a tailored approach to nutrition counseling, centered around each individual, so we can work together to restore their optimal health.

Lynn Meeboer, MS, RD, LD

Registered Dietitian

Hi, I’m Lynn. I pivoted from a career in business to dietetics when I moved to Kansas City in 2016. After having my daughters, I developed a personal interest in helping other women through the pregnancy lifecycle – pregnancy, lactation, and postpartum – as well as helping to cultivate healthy relationships with food in children. My education and experience have helped me overcome my own health struggles, as well as my daughter’s issues with poor weight gain and digestive issues. I know first-hand the impact diet can have on health, and I’m excited that now I get to help others optimize their health through nutrition! I am passionate about promoting holistic health and healing alongside a balanced and healthy relationship with food.
