Roadmap to Digestive Relief

Digestive Issues

Did you know that there are therapeutic diets that can help you manage your irritable bowel symptoms of gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation and pain?  One of these is called Low FODMAP which can be challenging to follow on your own.  We have personal and professional experience and resources to make this trial more successful and convenient in your everyday life.

Food Sensitivities

Did you know  that food sensitivities are related to your immune system?
Food sensitivities can have delayed responses up to 72 hours after eating which makes them difficult to identify. This is why food sensitivity testing can be so beneficial! Most people with food sensitivities have multiple symptoms including bloating, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, diarrhea and stomach pain. We can help you decrease inflammation and feel better.

Nutrition Tips for Digestive Issues

Watch this video on ways to improve gut health. Listen to one of our digestive disorder dietitians talk about three ways that you can help improve your digestive symptoms.

We are here for you

You might not know what role a dietitian can help in your gut health.  When it comes to managing your pain that is associated with eating, we’re the most important addition to your healthcare team.

A typical appointment begins with getting to know each other. We’ll review your medical history and symptoms, discuss your current diet and lifestyle, and listen to your health goals. It’s important to understand you as a whole to determine the next best step to improving your digestive health, whether it would be food sensitivity testing, low FODMAP diet, stool test, SIBO testing, or simply keeping a food log to identify patterns. It’s not uncommon to proceed with more than one intervention at the start!

A diet-first approach is the best way to intervene and restore all bodily symptoms, and only after that will your dietitian use supplementations such as probiotics, digestive enzymes, multivitamins etc.

Each person is unique, and there is no one size fits all diet to address gut-health. We’ll use follow-up visits to review your symptoms and assess your progress, helping you navigate dietary changes and meal prep along the way.
