Megan Blacksmith is a Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® practitioner and also Certified Holistic Health Coach. She is the co-founder of Zestyginger.com where she and her partner in crime Alex Golden MD work with women in 1-on-1 and group program settings such as seasonal detoxes and a Healthy Hormone Group Program. They have created a space for women to discover underlying imbalances leading to their health concerns. They dig into topics such as hormones, detoxification, nutrient deficiency and gut health.

Megan likes to consider herself a health detective and functional lab work is the key component in her detective kit. Instead of chasing symptoms, they search for the root cause. Her own struggle with low energy, recurring infections, adrenal dysfunction and heavy metals (all while trying to balance family life with a corporate job) opened her eyes to a journey that does not require willpower and deprivation. She was able to restore her adrenal function naturally and now has the energy to do what she is really passionate about. She has two wonderful little girls: Lily, who is 6, and Paige, who is 1. They keep her busy but are her greatest motivation to create a healthier world.
