Kristy Regan, MScN, MSW
As a Nutritionist, I’ve been honored to be part of the gastrointestinal health community for many years. I’ve learned so much for my clients and fellow health workers, and hopefully, I’ve helped some folks along the way.
When I worked with clients on gastro nutrition, I noticed the emotional turmoil that many people faced from chronic health issues and all the life changes that go along with that. This spurred me to go back to school for a master’s degree in social work and begin work as a mental health therapist specializing in trauma treatment.
Due to this career change, I’ll be shutting down this website at the end of June. My books are still available online (Amazon and other outlets) and my cooking videos will remain on YouTube. Make sure to grab any recipes or blog posts you may want for reference as they won’t be available elsewhere after the website is down. Many thanks and best of luck on your journey!
