This week we met Victorien Madsen! Victorien lives in The Netherlands and was diagnosed with UC after the birth of her 2nd child. We talked to her about navigating this new disease while parenting young children. Trying to find the right treatment option and finally finding the Specific Carbohydrate Diet before the internet was really even a thing. We talked to her about how she incorporated that diets into her life and her family's routine. We talked to her about modifying recipes and how she learned to create delicious foods for herself. We discussed how she started volunteering to run a support group for people with IBD who are interested in using diet to complement their treatment and finally how all of that led her to start volunteering with Nutritional Therapy for IBD.
