Meet Orli, founder of ThrivingBiome.

I help people uncover the root causes of gut issues, autoimmune conditions, and postpartum depletion through evidence-based nutrition and functional lab testing. My passion for this work began long before I became a registered dietitian. Growing up, I watched someone I love struggle with chronic, unexplained symptoms before finally finding answers through nutrition and lifestyle medicine. That experience shaped the way I practice today: looking beyond symptom management to understand why symptoms are happening in the first place. Since then, I've helped hundreds of clients move beyond restrictive diets, endless supplements, and frustrating dead ends. My approach combines comprehensive lab testing with nutrition, lifestyle, and sustainable habits to create individualized plans that address the root cause—not just the symptoms. As a mom of three, postpartum nutrition has become a central part of my work. I know firsthand how demanding pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and motherhood can be, and I'm passionate about helping women replenish their bodies while caring for their families. Whether you're navigating digestive symptoms, autoimmune disease, postpartum recovery, or persistent fatigue, my goal is to help you understand your body, feel empowered by the science, and build a plan that creates lasting change.

Orli believes in the bio-individuality of all individuals and understands that your story is unique.

  • Do you feel unheard by doctors and overwhelmed by your ever growing list of medications?

Orli's approach.

Dig Deep
I understand how multifaceted health is and believe that every disease has a root trigger that, when found, can send it into remission. I conduct a rigorous health investigation for every single client, digging deep to find the obvious and not-so-obvious factors that might be contributing to their state of disease.
Treat Root Causes
Once I have a good basis for why and how you got to where you are, I begin the life-changing process of healing from the inside out! I help you create long-lasting behavioral changes through repetition, unwavering support, and accountability.

Imagine this.

  • You feel like yourself again and no longer suffer from chronic fatigue, inflammation, or pain.
  • Your energy is back and you can enjoy doing the things you love.
  • You are more in tune and aware of your body and know what you need to thrive and feel your best.
  • Your menstrual cycles are regular and you no longer suffer from debilitating cramping and PMS.
  • You can easily maintain a healthy body weight and feel fully nourished.
