Episode 97: IBD Nutrition with Kim Beall, Pharm.D
Manage episode 414777949 series 2839475
Nutritional therapy plays a significant role in managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but it is often overlooked in traditional medical care.
Exclusive enteral nutrition is effective in inducing remission, while therapeutic diets like the IBD-Anti-Inflammatory Diet and the Specific Carbohydrate Diet have shown positive results.
Monitoring nutrient deficiencies and biometric measurements like grip strength are essential for optimal management of IBD.
To help develop a framework for this topic I welcomed on the Kim Beall, Pharm.D., who is the Cofounder and Managing Director of Nutritional Therapy for IBD, http://www.nutritionaltherapyforibd.org a non-profit dedicated to establishing evidence-based nutritional therapy as a foundational part of IBD care to improve the well-being and health outcomes of those living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Kim and I met related to a mutual colleague the late Trina Seligman, ND who had a courageous life long battle with Crohns/Colitis . We share a strong bond with Trina.
