Gastrointestinal Disorders

There are many complex gastrointestinal disorders that clients will benefit with specialised nutritional advice.

Some conditions include chronic constipation, chronic diarrhoea, pancreatic insufficiency, inflammatory bowel disease, coeliac disease, and irritable bowel syndrome inclusive of lactase deficiency and fructose malabsorption.

Other disorders can be related to surgery including total colectomy, surgical intervention to the oesophagus, stomach, pancreas or small and large intestine.

Working through your issues with the dietitian will assist in formulating an individual plan to maximise your nutritional status and minimise gastrointestinal symptoms.

Diarrhoea / Constipation Management

A thorough dietary assessment may be able to assist in your diarrhoea and constipation management.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

IBS is a common condition that dietary assistance has been proven to assist in symptom management and identification of food intolerances.

Significant Gastrointestinal Motility Issues

Many clients may suffer with conditions such as gastroparesis or slow transit constipation.  At My Healthy Body Clinic we have extensive experience in this area.

Previous Surgical History

Some clients may struggle with gastrointestinal symptoms following surgical procedures of their oesophagus, stomach, pancreas, small or large intestine.  In these cases, you may benefit from nutritional assessment and review.

Coeliac Disease / Crohn’s Disease / Ulcerative Colitis

Clients with these diseases may benefit from individual assessment and management plans.
