Leading the Way Through Medical Issues

I, Barb M. Mahlmeister RDN, IFMCP, am fully prepared to help you with any health issue. I work with individuals of all ages to improve their overall health and wellness. My services include genetic counseling and seminars for many health topics. As an online nutritionist, I support patients across the United States.

Putting an Unpleasant Experience to Good Use

I came to my career as a dietitian organically with interest in functional medicine that I nurtured by attending seminars in the early 1990s while working for a major airline. Following a trip to Africa, I became very ill and visited many specialists who couldn’t diagnose the issue and treated me with several antibiotics. I was finally diagnosed with a parasite.

The antibiotics were very hard on my system, and no one could resolve the issues. I researched the condition and eventually treated myself for candida, a fungal infection. That experience serves me well today as a gastrointestinal nutritionist during consultations with patients as I am always digging deep into their health issues.

Due to this experience I returned to school for a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics & Nutrition. I furthered my studies through the Institute of Functional Medicine and was in the inaugural class of 2013.
