Didn’t feel like I had time for much formal learning this year because…

Let’s be honest… EVERY day I’ve been learning on the job for the launch and helping people with our new Gut Wealth sachets

But chuffed to get my cert this week!

And I also elected to become a member of the GI Institute Global

#mygutwealth

Gl Institute has been developed by University of Michigan and FODMAP Friendly. It is aimed at providing education on gastrointestinal health and digestive diseases to all health professionals globally.

More info about the course

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects approximately one in seven people around the world, and health professionals have an important role in helping patients deal with this distressing condition.

The course from the GI Institute equipped me with everything needed to offer support. 

Delve into IBS diagnosis and the low FODMAP diet

The course started with a comprehensive introduction to IBS including its pathophysiology and symptoms. I learned how the Rome IV criteria and other tests are used in IBS diagnosis, how a positive IBS diagnosis is made in clinical practice, what FODMAP means, and why the low FODMAP diet is so widely recommended.
