I went to Clear Passage with a number of issues – strictures from Crohn’s, lack of periods, low nutritional absorption, SIBO, fatigue, leg ache etc.  My main reason for going though was to avoid major surgery for strictures.  Now that the therapy is over and I’ve been doing the home programme for about six months, […]

Easter brunch. #glutenfree #dairyfree banana stuffed pancakes topped with mango, raspberries, strawberries and banana with 🥓 on the side. Had it with coconut yogurt and maple syrup 😋. 95% of the time I’m grain-free but I can get away with the odd gluten-free slice of bread/cake/pancake without any bad reaction so enjoyed these today. 👌 #crohnsdisease #crohns #ibd #guthealth #pancakes #brunch
Snowy walks today. Everywhere so pretty. #snow #stormemma #dublin
Snowy day calls for a comforting lunch. Trying @cullyandsully chicken broth with veggies and a side avocado toast with #theculturedfoodcompany ruby red sauerkraut on top. New favorite way to have #sauerkraut. #glutenfree #dairyfree #crohns #crohnsdisease #ibd #lunch
One of my New Year’s healthy habits I want to cultivate is making sure I eat at least nine portions of fruit and veg (mostly veg) a day to help me increase my fiber intake. This lot should help me reach that target today 💪. And while I’’m going to aim to increase my raw veg intake this year and see what I can handle, I’m always mindful of my digestion so I still cook most. #progress #everybitcounts #alltheveggies #morevegetablesthanavegetarian #healthyhabits #crohns #crohnsdisease #ibd #nutrition
It’s stormy outside so perfect for curling up with a warming turmeric latte (Golden Mylk). I whizzed up hot coconut milk, turmeric powder, cinnamon powder, a pinch of black pepper (to activate the turmeric) and then added a spoon of MCT oil and some collagen powder to thicken it up and make it go a bit frothy. 👌 but I can definitely work on my froth game 😂. #goldenmylk #turmericlatte #antiinflammatory #crohns #crohnsdisease #ibd
Happy New Year! Starting 2018 off with a healthy brunch - leafy greens (non starchy veg), butternut squash (carb), smoked salmon and grilled salmon (protein) and some avocado and olive oil (healthy fats). Balanced plate👌. Last year was a brilliant year - I got married, went on the most amazing honeymoon, had life changing surgery in March (had a foot of intestines removed) and have been Crohn’s free ever since. It’ll be hard for 2018 to top that but sure I’ll give it a go 😊. #happynewyear #brunch #balancedplate #crohns #crohnsdisease #glutenfree #dairyfree #paleo #nutrition
