Gut health
Bloating, reflux, IBS, SIBO, and the stomach troubles that can come with a GLP‑1. When your gut is unhappy, it's hard to think about anything else, so that's often where we start.
I'm Maureen Rieras, a licensed nutritionist based in Maryland. Whether it's your gut, your hormones, your blood sugar, or life on a GLP‑1, I'd love to help you find your way back to feeling well.
The path towards great health is a winding road with twists and turns that can be difficult to navigate. Let's work together to get through the obstacles and reach a place where you feel confident and have the tools you need.
It wasn't my idea and it didn't work. It took me years to learn that no diet was going to fix things. I had to get to the root of my issues and reclaim my friendship with food.

I welcome clients with all types of concerns. Here are the areas I focus on. You may see yourself in more than one.
Bloating, reflux, IBS, SIBO, and the stomach troubles that can come with a GLP‑1. When your gut is unhappy, it's hard to think about anything else, so that's often where we start.
PCOS, fertility and pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause, endometriosis. Food can do a lot to support your hormones through every stage of life.
Diabetes, insulin resistance, cholesterol, blood pressure, and thyroid. I'd like to see how much we can improve your numbers with food first.
If you're taking a GLP‑1 medication, I can help you manage side effects, get enough protein and nutrients when you're not very hungry, and plan for coming off it. I'm always happy to work alongside your prescriber.
My practice is rooted in treating the whole person. Food is fundamental to great health, and there are other things that may need attention too. We'll look at your lifestyle, sleep, exercise, relationships, work, underlying health conditions, and anything else you think is important.
But don't get me wrong! What's on the end of your fork has the power to heal your body. I also use herbs and supplements for specific conditions to help with healing and to replenish the body.
Everyone starts with a 60-minute initial consultation. I'm in‑network with Blue Cross Blue Shield CareFirst and will verify your benefits before our consultation.
If you're not in‑network with CareFirst, these are my cash rates: $150 for 60 minutes and $75 for 30 minutes.
