There are some things that seem harmless or even helpful that just don’t translate in IBD….

Things like….

🥦 Dietary tracking. When your gut is inflamed and everything feels like a trigger- you’ll get nowhere fast.

Does it mean none of it matters? Absolutely not. It matters. But it’s not a good starting place. We need to first start with foundational support like….

➡️ Bringing in things to help increase remission odds
➡️ Treat nutrients / malnutrition that’s preventing it
➡️ Strategies to help reduce symptoms

🤍 Intuitive eating. I don’t know about you but in a flare my gut doesn’t want anything at times. Not eating, skipping meals, and malnourishment is going to backfire.

Intuitive just eating doesn’t look the same in IBD. We need things to anchor us still in what matters the most. Anchors like…

➡️ A path to help with expanding the diet
➡️ A sense of safety with food
➡️ Help with “gut friendly” foods that IBD makes hard to handle

🚨 New research alert! 🚨

A recent study found that plant-based foods containing sulfur may have a protective effect in Ulcerative Colitis! Which may help reshape the gut microbiome and metabolome in mild–moderate UC.

We’re breaking it all down in our latest YouTube video! What the research means, what a reduced sulfur diet really looks like, and how it could fit into IBD nutrition care.

💬 Curious what this could mean for your UC?

Living with IBD means we’ve got to laugh and remind ourselves we’re stronger than we think 💪🏻 That’s where affirmations can come in! Whether they’re silly, heartfelt, or somewhere in between 💕

Sometimes it’s:
✨I WILL have a solid BM today.
Other times it’s:
✨ My body is doing its best, even when it may not always feel like it.

Both are valid. And both are needed.

Which one are you repeating today!? Funny or heartfelt? Drop your fav affirmations below and send this to a friend who needs a laugh! 🤭



PS, can anyone with IBD honestly trust their gut? 🫣🤪
