Dr. Neilanjan Nandi, MD and Neha D. Shah, RD (Neha Shah Nutrition) bring you ‘How to Eat Desi with IBD’ on Instagram LIVE (@southasianibd) for CCAWarenessWeek! One of the biggest unmet needs in the South Asian patient community is how to eat Desi khana (food) while living with IBD. We see many self-restricted diets and food fears with ensuing malnutrition and significant weight loss in our IBDesis FB community. It can be really very hard for patients to navigate given the variety of spices, grains and vegetables in our cuisine.
In order to help our community, we brought you all this IG LIVE to help folks eat well and live their best lives in spite of having Crohns or Ulcerative Colitis!
