Let’s taco ‘bout it.

Ladies, we’ve been lied to. We’ve been made to believe that it’s normal to have painful, heavy, or irregular periods. That’s not true.

The truth is, when your hormones are balanced, your period shouldn’t be so painful or irregular that it completely derails your life when it does come. 

Now, our periods are not the only thing affected by a hormone imbalance. Low energy, increased stress, sleep disruptions, migraines, inflammation, and brain fog are just a few of the symptoms you might experience if your hormones are out of whack. PCOS, pre-menopausal symptoms, interstitial cystitis, infertility, and thyroid conditions are also hormone-related conditions that require some additional support. 

These symptoms and conditions can have a huge impact on your quality of life, and a lot of times the messages we receive is that there’s no way around it. Well, that’s also not true.

Our hormone-specialized dietitians can use nutrition to support healthy hormone levels and reduce symptoms so you can live your life more fully, feeling better than you knew was possible!

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!

Bethany Frazier, MS, RDN, LD

Owner, Registered Dietitian

Hi there, I’m Bethany, the owner of the Kansas City Dietitian Collective. I love food puns, cookies, and I’m obsessed with Halloween. I’m a second generation dietitian, so nutrition is basically in my blood. I love that I grew up with nutrition, and my education is invaluable, but nothing makes you an expert quite like experiencing it yourself. On my journey to specializing in complex issues, I’ve had my fair share of complex issues, including hormone concerns, getting my thyroid removed, and digestive issues that showed up after I had my third baby, developed mastitis, and was prescribed three rounds of antibiotics. Working with my health team, and using the personalized approach to nutrition that is our foundation here, I was able to come up with a sustainable plan that supports my gut health and keeps my symptoms at bay. I love to help clients find the right combination of supports to improve their symptoms and improve their lives!

Erica Tangeman RD, LD, CPT

Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer

Hi, I’m Erica. I have a confession: I am a Real Housewives fanatic. I’m also a huge fan of creating new recipes and using nutrition to help fuel bodies well. I grew up in a small town and played almost every sport I could. During that time, I began to research how nutrition could help improve my athletic performance. During this time, I began struggling with several GI symptoms, which continued for over 10 years, with no help from the conventional side of healthcare. In college I began to learn about functional medicine and personalized nutrition. I was able to get to the root of my GI issues, finding ways to heal my gut with nutrition and functional medicine. Now, with my education and experience, I am able to help others who are struggling with the same issues find solutions when other medical paths don’t pan out.

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.
