We know that inflammation can cause IBS ... We know that some foods can cause inflammation .... But let's talk about foods which I've seen to cause major inflammation/IBS symptoms that always seem to surprise people. Cinnamon Ginger Shrimp Soy Zucchini Grapes Sweet potatoes Quinoa Olive oil Chicken Now BEFORE you take these foods out of your diet, let me be clear: every BODY is different! There is no way I can look at someone and guess which foods are the problem... 🏻‍️ I have a magic super power which helps me see the source of inflammation, and fight it. (see link in BIO) That means...no more guessing which foods are the problem! (Does that even work anyway?)

Since you’re here, I bet you have a gut feeling that food is playing a role in your IBS... But maybe it’s been impossible to pinpoint which foods exactly are the problem... Or maybe you’ve taken out a couple of foods and feel slightly better, but you’re still far from feeling great... The thing is, foods can absolutely cause inflammation, and for some, that is the start to IBS But did you know we can pinpoint the foods causing your inflammation? This is my all-time favorite way to target the foods causing your inflammation (and therefore, your IBS)...link in bio! #ibs #foodsensitivities #foodintolerance #irritablebowelsyndrome

It's not such a bad thing to be stuck at home when you have IBS... you're close to your bathroom, you can wear baggy clothes, you can lay down and curl up into a ball if needed... but what about when you want to make plans? If you're eager to see friends, go to a restaurant, or get out of town--all of those things are going to make you more uncomfortable. Having to wear jeans? Run to an unfamiliar toilet? Change up your eating routine... If that's enough to make you cringe, it's a good sign to start making changes NOW. What if your bowel movements were normal by summer time? 🩳 What if you could make plans, AND feel great during and after them? Let's get you feeling great now, so you can hold onto that feeling for later. To your health, Marina

Getting rid of your IBS symptoms AND protecting your health is my jam!

I've just gotta get this out there because I'm blown away! (I love what I do, can you tell?) The ONE thing I look for in every client I work with is their symptom reduction. Every few weeks, we score all of their symptoms to gauge how well we are doing... I just love reviewing these! This one client today showed me how she feels 80% better after just a few weeks. This means she no longer wakes up with cramping and pain. Has more than enough energy to go to the gym, work, and night school. And because of this, also has a lot less stress and even better sleep. Are you looking to have a success story of your own? I'm here for you! To your health, Marina #ibs #ibsdiet

Did you know that the keto diet has been used for IBS? By taking out almost all carbohydrates from the diet, it can make it easier to digest certain foods! Cool huh? The not so cool part...did you know that a high fat diet can exacerbate IBS symptoms? So can a high protein diet (more Atkin's-like). Also, a long-term keto diet can decrease the amount of healthy plants in your diet--you know, all of those plants which have cancer-fighting properties? Psst! As your dietitian friend, I urge you to consider what the long-term game plan looks like for any diet, and how it will nourish you down the road. If you're interested in learning about building a diet that can actually help your body heal for the longterm, PM me to book a session #ibs #ibsdiet

*Don’t use my IBS program* It might seem a bit crazy, but when new IBSers ask me for advise, I say this... Don't use my IBS program...yet. There are lots of options out there for helping IBS symptoms, some of them being easy and inexpensive. Others are more time consuming or just downright confusing. You might take some time following the guidance from a friend, medical professional, or even an online influencer. This whole process of trial and error helps you realize exactly what you're looking for--something concrete to follow! Something that actually gives you results. Something you can adapt to your lifestyle. If you've had trials and errors, theres a great chance we will have some good things to chat about! If that's you, I'd love to hear more! Just reply to this or PM me with your experiences. #ibs #ibsdiet #ibsrecipes

Read this before starting a Low FODMAP diet.... I used to use the low FODMAP diet as a first-line approach in managing IBS symptoms such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, and constipation. But then I stopped, and I’ll tell you why. A low FODMAP diet can initially be helpful if you have difficulty digesting certain carbohydrates. The down side: a low FODMAP diet doesn’t heal your body. It focuses on removing foods which cause symptoms. But then what? You will likely have to keep those foods out of your diet to continue keeping those symptoms at bay. What if there were a diet that could get rid of your symptoms and actually support your body in healing itself? If that’s something you’re interested in, you can work with me to get started! #ibs #ibsdiet #ibsdietplan

If you don’t poop much, you’re not alone Believe it or not, 1-3 normal bowel movements per day is ideal. And believe it or not, that CAN be you. Is this you now?.... “I’ve never had daily bowel movements” “I normally go to the bathroom 2-3 times per week” “I bet my bloat would go away if I went to the bathroom every day” Would you love this to be you?.... “Not only am I going to the bathroom every day, but it’s comfortable and easy” “I haven’t used Miralax in weeks!” “My doctor took me off of Linzess, and my bowel movements are so much better [more predictable]” If you're ready to have better BMs, message me to request an appointment to see if we can make this happen. #ibsdiet #ibs
