About Me 

Hi, I’m Morgen Backus—a clinically trained nutritionist, Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS), and Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist (LDN) with a Master of Science in Clinical Nutrition. I help women heal from the inside out using a personalized, science-backed approach rooted in both evidence-based nutrition and holistic wellness.

My passion for health has always been strong—but my real healing journey began out of necessity. In college, I was diagnosed with IBS and struggled with chronic acne. Medications offered temporary relief at best, often with frustrating side effects. As a broke student, I couldn’t afford to rely on prescriptions long-term—so I turned to food and began digging into the connection between nutrition and gut health. What I found changed my life.

Through intentional changes to my diet, lifestyle, and the use of plant medicine, I was able to fully heal my body—naturally. And I’ve continued to support my health that way ever since.

Now, I help other women do the same.

In my private practice and as a full-time dietitian in group home and residential settings, I support women in addressing the root causes of their symptoms—whether it’s hormone imbalance, digestive issues, or low energy—and guide them toward long-term wellness with strategies that feel nourishing and sustainable.

My approach goes beyond “what to do”—I focus on why it works, so you can feel confident in your choices and connected to your body again.
