Gut Feelings - by The Crohn's & Colitis Dietitians
When Your Labs Are Good But Your Gut Isn't
Has your doctor ever told you your labs look good but... you still have IBD symptoms?
It's actually pretty common! In this episode we talk about this in more depth.
Discussion points:
- Personal updates - Danielle shares about being snowed in, Ashley shares about the two new additions to her family (0:00 - 9:00)
- With Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis & Microscopic colitis - What is going on when our labs are fine but we are still symptomatic? Our own personal experiences, the importance of multiple providers from different specialties (9:00 - 18 minuites)
- Possible reasons for symptoms outside of IBD - malabsorption (18 - 20 minutes)
- Why we don't usually recommend low fodmap in IBD (20-23 minutes)
- Fiber and how we navigate it, how food tolerance can change over time, why getting support with nutrition can improve your quality of life with IBD, medical trauma with IBD and learning to trust your body... and more!

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 you tube and telling others about us (your doctors, friends, family, forums/reddit etc). Can you do this for us? In return, I promise to continually level up what we do here.
