Your Instructor
IBD Dietitian Danielle Gaffen, MS, RDN, LD
Understanding the link between nutrition and gut disease inspired me to become an IBD Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I have a passion for helping people with Crohn’s and colitis who are struggling with confusion around what to eat. My favorite part is helping you build confidence to eat without fear while managing your symptoms.

Testimonials
After the program, I’m feeling more confident about food choices. Definitely been listening to my body more and knowing what things I should avoid or limit. It has been telling me all along I just wasn’t listening. I do notice feeling better when I stay hydrated, eat smartly and pay attention to what I put into my body rather than just eating whatever’s in front of me.
I would absolutely recommend this nutrition program to someone else. It was a wonderful experience and extremely informative! It really answered so many questions I had and really helped me being so newly diagnosed to reintroduce foods and figure out a food plan that works for me.
Now I am more confident about my food choices. Sometimes it’s still hard to give up certain foods that I know will make me sick. But I’m getting better. I am more empowered and know what foods and ingredients to avoid. I am much better off health wise.
