Theibsdietitian Reviews 70

I contacted Kirsten due to having IBS symptoms for over 20 years, over that time I have been through the nhs and tried what felt like everything and spent so much money on different so called remedies, food intolerance tests and supplements all of which made no difference, I have just finished the 121 package and Kirsten was brilliant!! Her knowledge, help and guidance have been invaluable and I finally have a clear path of how to manage my symptoms!

Kirsten was an amazing guide throughout this whole process! From taking what was a daunting experience and turning it into an easy to follow and really helpful guide. I feel I have a much better understanding of how food impacts my symptoms, and although it was classed as a diet restriction, Kirsten helped me keep a varied diet with great substitutes and recipes throughout. The perfect mix of support and accountability, I would recommend Kirsten to anyone who’s suffering with IBS and feels they need some extra support or a better understanding of the relationship of food, lifestyle and their symptoms. I feel more in control of my symptoms than I have done at any point in my life

I am so glad I took a chance and worked with Kirsten, and I am so grateful to her - she has changed my life. After suffering for 10 years with chronic digestive issues and related symptoms where I was getting absolutely nowhere on the NHS, I am 99% symptom free after just 3 months with Kirsten. I only wish I’d worked with her sooner. I now have the *correct* diagnosis of a histamine intolerance, and am equipped to navigate this moving forward. I highly recommend Kirsten’s 1:1 programme, if you’re on the fence, you should absolutely do it! Thank you again Kirsten, so much.

Kristen helped me so much and I worked with her 1:1. I have struggled for years with IBS and tried all sorts of things like cutting out lactose and gluten to no avail. With her help and guidance I have down my symptoms by 95% and can now live a normal life. I have all the tools now to continue on the IBS discovery journey alone.

Not long completed the 12 week VIP 1-2-1 programme with Kirsten
After years of stomach issues which had been almost controlling my life I am so glad I came across Kirsten.

I’m now back running, going to gym and hillwalking for the first time in a long long time.Feels like I have a life again.

She is easy to speak to, knowledgeable and always there when you have any questions.

Was on the low FODMAP diet and fybogel and noticed improvements from about 5 weeks and by 7 weeks the difference was huge.

Don’t believe that there nothing you can eat on the low FODMAP diet, it’s not nearly as restrictive as I had believed.(watching too much YouTube videos of poorly informed people)

Feels good to be in control of my stomach and not the other way around.

I can’t thank her enough and would highly recommend anyone struggling to try working with her.

When I came to Kirsten I felt completely out of control with my gut and had no idea what to do next! I now am able to eat so much more variety and have access to all the tools I need for the future. Thank you so much for helping me the past 3 months it has been life changing!

I just finished the VIP program with Kirsten and had a great experience! I have been struggling with IBS for years and have had a hard time figuring out the causes of my symptoms. Kirsten was very knowledgeable and able to help me figure out the issues I was having. She was always there to answer any questions and was super helpful!

I have tried a lot of things to help my IBS and this was by far the most helpful. I also really liked that Kirsten understands the link between mental and physical symptoms.

Highly recommend Kirsten!

After years of IBS which I'd managed, I developed some other rather unpleasant symptoms, after months of seeing a nutritionist having unnecessary tests, taking supplements, stopping eating dairy, gluten, eventually I could only eat fish and rice. I was starting to feel very unwell. I went to the doctors in November 2023 and they suggested I may have Bile Acid Malabsorption (BAM) or Bile Acid Diarrhoea (BAD). I'd never heard of it, I was in denial, I didn't want to have it. They gave some medication which I took but still wasn't feeling well, I couldn't keep any food in and was losing weight rapidly, they weren't really there to support me. No one had heard of this condition so I started searching for an expert so I could get a handle on it and that's when I found Kirsten. She felt like a lifesaver when I first talked to her just after Christmas. I have been on a 121 programme with her for 3 months and finally I am starting to feel better. Her kindness, support and advice has been amazing. I couldn't have got through this very difficult time without her all round approach of not just nutrition, but also looking at sleep, exercise and mindfulness. Kirsten helped me getting the dosage right of the medication, I went on a low FODMAP diet which I'm nearly finished with but now I know what foods trigger symptoms. Thank you Kirsten for giving me my life back. I cannot recommend you enough. Good luck with your new book and I hope you're able to help more and more people suffering.

I came to Kirsten from a bleak place: Almost six years of restrictive diets (low carb for SIBO, low fodmap for IBS and low histamine for histamine intoleratnce) had so depleted my microbiome that I could hardly tolerate anything without extreme discomfort. I was underweight, depressed by joyless meals and feeling that things could not improve at all. However, I was willing to give it another try, and Kirsten was able to help put a lot of things right for me. Like others who have left reviews here, I want to stress that Kirsten's holistic approach--including close attention to sleep, mood and exercise--is very important to achieving progress. Others give lip service to these elements, but Kirsten boot camps you into doing something about these key aspects of digestive health.

Thank you, Kirsten!

I was searching for a dietitian in my region to help me with low FODMAP diet, and i was lucky enough to find Kirsten. She was able to understand my lifestyle and food habits very smoothly and worked around my limited options when it comes to food.

She provided me with all the information, knowledge and assisted me during rough times with IBS, i am very pleased and happy with all services she provided and i cannot recommend her enough for all the care and attention to details.

Thank you Kirsten!

Life changing experience, I have struggle with Ibs and eating disorders for a long time, trying various things to manage my symptoms,that never worked. Kirsten is very knowledgeable,listen to your own specific journey, taking into account so many aspects of your lifestyle to help you understand at best what works for you. She is a great support, and helped me to start a new relationship with food, reduce the symptoms drastically, and giving me some hope back, understanding that i don't have to live in constant pain. Definintely recommend

Kirsten is incredibly knowledgeable and has really helped give me direction and answers to help me manage IBS!

Kirsten is very knowledgable and cares about what your situation is. I ended up finding out I have a histamine intollerrance and whilst it took a while to get to this conclusion, Kirsten was supportive the whole time. Highly recommended!

I had struggled with IBS my whole life. No dietitian or treatment plan could help me manage my symptoms. What’s special about Kristen is that she does not only give you a list of foods to avoid but she works on your habits and follows up with you every step of the way so you never feel alone or misunderstood. She’s the first person who actually acknowledged my struggle and who taught me how to live with it when I was going through the hardest period of my life. Shes got scientific knowledge and experience and could explain to me professionally everything. I never imagined that my habits and my lifestyle impacted this much my gut health. I always knew it theoretically, but trust me practically, I was amazed by the correlation. If you’re suffering and you’re hesitant to start treatment, this is your sign. This is not an ad. This is a Kristen patient 5 months post treatment living her best life!

Life changing!! Only wish I had done this sooner! Kirsten has literally changed my life. What I thought was wrong with me based on gp diagnosis is not in fact correct. Working with Kirsten and having her expert guidance and support allowed her to finally discover that I don't have IBS but in fact a different illness. I am now on medication that has changed my life for the better and feel better than I have in years! So thankful for Kirsten and her wealth of knowledge.

Really helpful in breakdown of diets to help me identify the problem.
Amazing service
Would 100% recommend

Kirsten has completely changed my life! I have been told for 15 years that I have IBS which I have never been able to manage. After about 6 weeks of reviewing my food diary and symptoms she worked out what my actual issue is. The diagnosis she gave me no one in all that time had ever mentioned could be a possibility. I am now on tablets and have not felt this comfortable with my gut health in a very long time. Kirsten is very knowledgeable in her field and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone with gut issues that they are struggling with.

I contacted Kirsten having suffered IBS for a while and seeing various consultants, having all the tests etc. but getting no advice about how to deal with it. I read so much online and worried about what I could and couldn't eat that I lost a load of weight and didn't know what to do. After following Kirsten's 3 month VIP programme, I am more or less free of my symptoms and above all am back to eating the food I enjoy and have put all my weight back on. I particularly liked Kirsten's holistic approach encompassing exercise, sleep, mindfulness as well as diet. Everything we did was completely personalised to my situation and adjusted every week. As I expected, I did follow the low fodmap diet for a short while whilst increasing the fibre in my diet but once we realised it wasn't necessary for me, we changed tack and I didn't need to stick to it which was a relief. I highly recommend Kirsten for an expert personalised approach.

Understanding and managing my IBS symptoms has been a struggle for me for many years. Kristen supported me through every step of the journey of better understanding my body and provided me with a holistic plan accommodating my lifestyle. I am so happy with the improvements in my IBS and how much I learned about my body and IBS throughout the process.

I bought the SIBO e book, and it is a total waste of money. It does not contain any useful info. One can find the info contained in the book on any nutritional website, and it costs almost $30 USA.
I asked for money refund like half an hour after buying it and their answer was that they can not return the money because the book was opened! How unprofessional!
