Margaret Alstead, RD

I am a registered dietitian and have worked in a small community hospital for 29 years. I am certified in functional nutrition and am equipped to helping you get to the bottom of chronic illness. You can expect me to listen to your story. I meet you where you are at and we work together to come up with a plan that will work for you. I grew up in a big family in the upper peninsula of Michigan. I live in Iowa with my husband of 29 years and we have 3 kids that are all just getting started in their adult lives. I enjoy making food that tastes good, reading, biking, exercising, having a good time and being in the present moment. I believe nutrition is the foundation to health. It truly is the most powerful medicine. My own chronic health issues; ulcerative colitis, psoriasis and ovarian cancer, have provided a constant reminder that I need to continue to support my body with real foods to continue to heal and strive in my own body. I am here to help you do the same.
