Evidenced Based Nutrition, Personalized for Women

Specializing in women’s weight loss, perimenopause, and GLP-1 nutrition counseling in Lake Forest and virtually across Illinois.

Empowering healthier choices through food, flavor, and science

Welcome to North Shore Nutrition

Where nutrition science meets culinary craft

I founded North Shore Nutrition on the belief that nutrition guidance should be grounded in science and enjoyable to follow. As a professionally trained chef and registered dietitian, I translate research-backed strategies into practical, flavorful meals that support women through every stage of life.

 

I believe food is more than fuel. It’s connection, healing, and everyday empowerment. My experience in both clinical and culinary settings has shown me that meaningful change happens when nutrition recommendations are realistic, flexible, and satisfying.

 

Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, working toward sustainable weight loss, or building nutrition habits alongside a GLP-1 medication, I’ll help you eat with purpose and create habits that last.

I bring together culinary expertise from working in a Michelin-starred restaurant with more than a decade of clinical nutrition experience in a major Chicago hospital system.

Evidence-based. Flavor-forward. Designed for real life.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

"Allison has a way of making nutrition feel doable, not overwhelming. Her advice is practical and I’ve genuinely enjoyed trying the recipes she’s shared. Even with a busy schedule helping care for my grandchildren, I’ve found small changes that make a real difference in how I feel day to day."

Diane C. 

"Working with Allison has helped me cut through the noise. There’s so much conflicting advice out there, she answered my questions and clarified what’s grounded in science versus what’s just social media hype. I’ve learned how to eat in a way that supports my energy, my hormones, and my schedule. I finally feel like I’m working toward something sustainable."

Elaina Z. 

"I’ve never been much of a cook, and I’ve never been big on vegetables either. After some heart issues, I knew I had to make some changes, but I wasn’t sure if I was ready to start. Allison made it easy to take small steps that didn’t feel overwhelming. I still have a lot to learn, but I’m making steady progress and that feels good."
