Ep 33 Dr Gina Trakman on Diet and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Gina Trakman, course coordinator of La Trobe University's Master of Dietetics and research dietitian with expertise in Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Sports Nutrition. Gina shares her insights from leading international research on diet, gut microbiota, and Crohn's disease, and breaks down how food can influence inflammation and symptom management. We'll explore common misconceptions, practical strategies for navigating flares and remission, and the role of personalised nutrition in IBD care. Whether you live with IBD, support someone who does, or are simply curious about gut health, this conversation offers evidence-based and practical guidance for everyday life. So whether you're curious, concerned or just keen to learn more, this episode is full of insights you won't want to miss. Please enjoy my conversation with Dr Gina Trakman.
