Take Control - a podcast for people with IBS

Some people claim that food is just fuel but we know from research that this is not the case. Food is also about emotions and social ques as well. While every food has a place in a healthy diet and occassionally overeating will make zero difference to your health, do you regularly over eat or consume foods you know will make your IBS worse? This is a common issue and something we can use intuitive eating methods for.

In this episode, The IBS Dietiitan, Kirsten Jackson, speaks to specialist dietitian Maeve Hanan from Dietetically Speaking. She outlines what is this new method and how can you bring into your daily routine.
