Food and Household Products: Hidden Chemicals That Are Obesogens

Harmony With Food is a nationally syndicated functional nutrition podcast hosted by Registered Dietitian and functional nutrition practitioner Meg Marie O’Rourke.

Meg breaks down outdated nutrition myths, exposes gaps in conventional medicine, and teaches listeners how the microbiome, nutrient deficiencies, genetics, and food sensitivities shape long‑term health.With over 20 years of clinical experience, Meg champions the functional medicine philosophy of “Test, Don’t Guess,” helping listeners understand their bodies, advocate for themselves, and take control of their health one episode at a time.
