The role of the IBD dietitian is varied and may differ based on what phase your IBD is in, and personal prioritie. Nutrition interventions can reduce the need for, and maximize the benefits of medical and surgical treatments for IBD with a positive impact on your quality of life and improved long-term health outcomes. It requires additional specialist training in the medical and surgical complexities of IBD.

Dietitians are health professionals trained to evaluate food andnutrition science and translate this science into practical dietaryadvice.

Allergies and intolerances

Around 10% of infants in New Zealand have an allergy, with many more who may have intolerances. Anna has been helping families identify and manage their children’s allergies for 20 years while ensuring they don’t miss out on vital nutrition for growth and brain development. Anna has completed the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA)’s training, and co-wrote the Adverse Food Reactions section of the Dietitians New Zealand Clinical Handbook.

Although allergies are less common in adults, it is estimated that 3-4 adults in every 100 have an intolerance or allergy. Understanding the different biochemical mechanisms will give you the confidence to eat more widely. With my specialist training, my goal is to help you identify whether you really need to be avoiding particular foods or food groups. We will give you practical ideas on how to get your ideal intake of vitamins and minerals from real food to keep you nourished, while managing your intolerance symptoms and enjoying life.
