Your body isn't broken — symptoms are your body's way of asking for help. It's time to listen.
Most women land here after being told their labs are "normal" or that they just need to lose weight or worry less. I've been there myself, and I built my practice around what actually helped: real testing, real answers, and a plan built around your body — not a guess.
A Registered Dietitian, Backed by Data.
I'm Liz Riesen, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN, CD) with over 10 years of experience helping women balance their hormones, heal their gut, and feel comfortable and confident in their food choices.
My approach pairs advanced functional lab testing with personalized, 1:1 nutrition counseling — so you have a plan built around your body's actual data, not a generic protocol.
Testing I use in my practice includes:
- Comprehensive hormone panels
- Gut health & microbiome testing
- Organic acids panels (nutrients and metabolism)
- Toxin and environmental exposure testing
- Food sensitivity testing
This isn't a one-size-fits-all meal plan. It's a personalized roadmap based on what's actually happening in your body.
How It Works (3 Steps)
Step 1: Test
We start with functional lab testing so we can see exactly what's underlying symptoms and can address the root cause. Testing is determined after our initial call and symptom survey.
Step 2: Target
We'll review results and dive deeper into health history and symptoms in order to build you a personalized nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle plan that is effective and realistic for your life.
Step 3: Transform
With ongoing 1:1 support, you'll see your symptoms improve and feel confident in your body again.

Liz is extremely knowledgeable. She bases her recommendations in current research, while also acknowledging that every individual person has different needs. Her knowledge around hormones and stress are an essential factor in figuring out your dietary needs. Her approach is gentle and kind, while also being specific with recommendations. I would recommend Liz to anyone hoping to feel better and be held accountable.

Liz's understanding of the body and how it functions as a whole blew me away, her knowledge goes beyond what I had anticipated. Liz's compassion and encouragement, throughout the entire time working with me, really helped me stay the course. Results take time and having Liz's support made it so much easier. I'm so grateful to have more control over my body and how I feel.

After 3 months of healing work my migraines have dramatically decreased to almost zero, I’m no longer bloated, and have more knowledge of my hormones/cycle to help support my body and reduce painful periods. One thing I appreciated was her providing real food suggestions along with the supplement alternatives and gave me the option to which way I wanted to go. Liz is easy to work with and I’d recommend her to anyone thinking about reaching out for help!
Why Work With Me?
I've lived through much of this myself — hypothyroidism, severe PMS, anxiety, acne, migraines, and chronic bloating. I understand what it's like to feel dismissed and stuck in the same cycle, and I built my practice around what actually helped me: real data, not guesswork.
Today as a Registered Dietitian (RDN, CD) and a mom of two, my passion is helping women trust their bodies again using testing, nutrition, and lifestyle changes that fit real life — not a perfect one.
My faith is another cornerstone of my healing journey, and it’s what inspires my mission to help women build a strong foundation for a healthy, fulfilling life. Daily devotionals, coffee, and a little chocolate are some of my favorite things.
