You may have a lot of plans for your life. Like all the other plans that you have, planning a meal happens to bear a great deal of importance. Planning a meal has numerous benefits, but it mostly includes having a healthy body. This week on the Curious women podcast, we are having an interesting conversation about a meal planning session for gut, hormone, and skin health.

Meg is the founder of Meg The Dietitian. Meg used to have a lot of acne. According to her, she tried all the treatments that could be found but eventually get back to the same result. She studied nutrition at school and was finally fed up with all the things that she did to get rid of her acne and came to realize that the root causes of acne are gut issues, inflammation, trouble detoxing, underlying conditions, and hormonal imbalance. Now, she has developed a science-based protocol to help other women who have the same acne problem just like she did once. She helps women to control their acne and grow their self-confidence back through her “clear skin program”.

Kylie is a registered dietitian and trained as a nutrition certified practitioner. She has a master’s in Nutrition from Scranton. She has been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis; an autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is eventually destroyed. Once the treatments she received were thoughtless and not acceptable, she took control of her health and start working on her food and gut. Now, she helps people who have gut disorders and autoimmune diseases by searching for root causes and listening.
