Bowel Moments
Meet Stacey C.! Episode 5
We had so much fun talking to our friend Stacey Collins in this episode! Stacey is a Dietitian who lives with UC and we talked about the field of Dietetics, diet research for IBD, what you can find out in your bloodwork, surgery as a treatment option, road-tripping with IBD....and the joy that is Topo Chico....especially when mixed with tequila and lime.
Cheers!
Resources and Show Notes:
1. CORRECTION: Vitamin C deficiency in IBD was from LAURA MANNING, RD from The Mount Sinai Hospital
2. Here's an article about perioperative nutrition. There are different recommendations for the time that a patient should be consuming EN prior to surgery based on nutritional status, and this should always be done under the direction of a perioperative GI dietitian or trusted surgical team with nutrition expertise.
3. **Micronutrients shouldn't be supplemented without the support of data (patterns of labs over time; never blind supplementation) and your trusted GI dietitian and medical team.
