Do you...
A decade ago I was diagnosed with Crohn’s Colitis (Crohn’s disease of the large intestine). After being sick for over a year, I was relieved to finally have a name for what had been plaguing me, but I was also more confused than ever. What do I do now? What foods can I eat? What should I not eat? Why do I still feel so fatigued and bloated? So many questions and no one to ask.
Sound familiar?
I began doing my own research and was amazed at how important proper nutrition was to managing my disease. Inspired by the very illness I had despised, I headed back to graduate school and earned my Masters in Nutrition and my CNS® credential. For the past 10 years I have had ups and downs, flares and quiet, and have learned A LOT.
Everyone’s experience with Crohn’s and colitis is different. Some can heal with natural remedies alone, some cannot. There is no wrong way, there is no failure. There is only trial and error... and educating oneself as best as one can.

Testimonials
“I had no idea there was so much more to keeping my Crohn’s in check than just taking my medication. Since learning how to manage the stress in my life I have seen a decrease in flare ups. It’s so nice to work with someone who has the nutrition knowledge AND the experience with this disease!”
“My GI doc recommended I see a Nutritionist and it was the best thing I have done since being diagnosed with UC. I was at a loss as to what to eat and what I could do to feel better on those really bad days. I highly recommend working with Dannielle.”
