Stephanie Clairmont

My first guest today is Stephanie Clairmont.

Stephanie is a registered dietitian from Canada and an expert on IBS and FODMAPs. After being diagnosed with IBS herself in 2007, Stephanie struggled to find a plan to help her manage her symptoms. Since becoming  99% symptom-free, Stephanie now helps others suffering with digestive health issues to better manage their symptoms and their health and help them get back to feeling like themselves again.

Stephanie is also the founder of The Living Low FODMAP Community and  Beyond FODMAPs.

Stephanie shares two delicious recipes on this week’s episode: a No Fuss Turkey Vegetable Bolognese as a main dish, and a Wild Rice, Kale and Cranberry Stuffing as a side dish.


A-Little-Bit-Yummy-Alana-RecipesMy next guest is Alana Scott.

If you have listened to my other episodes, I had the pleasure of having Alana on my podcast already in Episode 7 and if you haven’t listened to it yet, I would suggest you take a moment to do so, after this episode.

Just to recap Alana’s bio, she was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome a few years ago and since then she has been following a low FODMAP diet to help manage her symptoms. In addition to suffering from IBS, Alana is also a Coeliac, she is allergic to tree nuts and she is also intolerant to dairy proteins.

Alana is the founder of the blog A Little Bit Yummy, where she combines her passion for cooking and love of writing to provide us with delicious low FODMAP recipes and science-based articles.
Alana shares her beautiful Roast Chicken With Stuffing And Homemade Gravy and a Simple Low FODMAP Cranberry Sauce.


Life-And-Thymez-Zlata-RecipesNext two recipes are shared by Zlata Thoughts from Life and Thymez.

Zlata is a full-time publicist, part-time writer and round-the-clock ambassador to wit and humour. Zlata is a self-taught home cook, who relies on taste bud science for her mostly simple, sometimes healthy/sometimes not, always delicious recipes. Zlata was the first published author to write about the Low FODMAP diet in a national U.S.-based lifestyle publication. She considers herself to be a big-time FODMAP diet ambassador and speaks freely about her issues with IBS. The goal of Zlata’s recipes are to be tasty, quick and simple…with a lot of leftovers. With the hectic lives we all lead, it can be a challenge to cook meals, especially when dealing with restrictions. Zlata recognises this and her recipes are inspired by this thought.

In this episode, Zlata will be sharing two wonderful recipes: Mashed Potato Buns as a side dish and Stuffed Peppers / Capsicumswhich could be a main course or a side dish.


My fourth guest today is Alexandra Adams, who is the author of the website Contented Belly.contented-belly-alexandras-recipes
