Overview
This installment of our Gastro Bites webinar series features a spotlight on the AGA Expert Exchange — Nutrition in IBD program. Leading experts explore evidence-based nutrition strategies as part of therapeutic care for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They also provide practical guidance on collaborating effectively with registered dietitians and multidisciplinary care teams (MD, PsyD) to improve patient outcomes.
This comprehensive educational initiative also featured an interactive Tweetorial on X and a six-episode podcast series on AGA’s Inside Scope, releasing episodes throughout the fall and winter. Together, these resources aim to elevate clinical knowledge and practice around nutrition management in IBD.
