Move from fear of eating to joy with IBS

Written By Marica Gaspic

After sometime being diagnosed with IBS then discovering I had food intolerances, gluten then dairy - cow’s milk , I was not sure of what to eat.

Part of that was my busy on the go life. It seems that I came up with a barrier on eating and redo g myself properly. I can’t possibly eat while leading a busy life because the foods I need to take need a microwave, not practical for my on the go life.

So I starved for fear of eating wrong foods. Or I would pick up French fries and water as a way of satisfying my hunger. In my mind it was sort of ok as there was no gluten (not direct) nor dairy.

NOT great eating choices or habits. Then I started to feel sick and worse. Finally looked at what I can take that was healthy for me..

Gluten free wraps filled with protein and vegetables, carrott sticks,  fruit slices. 

It was about steps to get there and little by little I moved away from fear of eating to love of eating. My curiosity increased and I am more open to different foods. The variety of gluten free product on the market also improved. I even eat plant based yogurt 

I am taking my experience , healthcare background and knowledge to help you get on the right track of healing your gut and managing your IBS.

Living with IBS can quietly take over your life — not just through pain and bloating, but through the constant uncertainty, loss of confidence, and fear of not being able to trust your own body.

I help high-performing women with IBS move from symptom-chasing to true physiological stability — by understanding IBS as what modern gastroenterology defines it to be: a disorder of gut–brain interaction involving the nervous system, microbiome, immune function, and stress physiology.

As a pharmacist and gut health coach — and as someone who has personally lived with IBS — I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to the work we do together. My clients don’t just “manage” IBS. They rebuild trust in their body, regain energy and confidence, and create a sustainable system of support that fits their real life.

This is not about restriction or short-term fixes.

It’s about building a body that finally makes sense.

Why Work With Me

Personal Experience

I have lived with IBS and successfully stabilized my own health — giving me deep insight into both the emotional and physiological realities of this condition.

Clinical Expertise

As a pharmacist, I bring evidence-based understanding of human physiology, gut–brain signaling, microbiome science, and medication interactions into every plan I create.

Proven Results

I have guided women through sustainable, personalized recovery frameworks that improve symptoms, restore energy, and dramatically elevate quality of life.

Together, we build a personalized, sustainable gut health strategy that supports your body, your lifestyle, and your long-term wellbeing — so you can live with calm, clarity, and confidence again.
