It can feel confusing when it comes to figure out food intolerances in IBD - but there is so much more to the conversation that isn't really talked about much online like....
⏰ Timing - if you are getting symptoms immediately after eating a food (like bloating or racing to the bathroom) it might not actually be the food itself - but it can still be data that we can use to drive nutrition recommendations.
💪🏼 Gut Tolerance - Triggers don't always stay the same. Did you know that the more that you build up your gut microbiome - it actually gets better at fermenting fibers overtime - which means LESS symptoms overall.
🥬 Your Food Patterns Matter Too - Many people use dietary tracking to pinpoint what their triggers are which can honestly be a little misleading in IBD. Your gut symptoms can be influenced not just by a single food - but food patterns, how frequently you eat, how supported your gut microbiome is and so much more!
➕ It's not just about what you take out of your diet... it's also about what you ADD to your diet to support your gut microbes. So if you do dietary tracking looking for triggers.... you should also look at.... how much color and diversity am I getting overall?
➡️ If you want us to take a look personally - we can! We just launched a very affordable option for people who want us to dive into their cases and put together a customized plan. Read more here: https://crohns-and-colitis-dietitians...
We love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel. Creating the resources we provide comes at a significant cost to us. We dream of a day where we can provide even more free education, guidance and support to those with IBD like us.
We need your support to do this. You can help us by liking episodes, sharing them on your social media, subscribing to YouTube and telling others about us (your doctors, friends, family, forums/reddit etc).
Can you do this for us? In return, I promise to continually improve what we offer to you on all of these platforms!
