Speaker:

Joanna Baker is a dietitian who loves food. Her passion for digestive health stems from a lifelong battle with IBS which has taught her both how hard it is to live with an unpredictable gut and how life changing it can be when food sensitivities are well managed. Joanna is trained and experienced in the low FODMAP diet and food chemical sensitivities. She has worked in FODMAP testing with FODMAP Friendly and presented to dietitians around Australia as well as Chicago and Dallas in the USA on the low FODMAP diet and functional gastro-intestinal disorders. She is currently on the Food Allergy and Intolerance Interest Group at Dietitians Australia and the advisory board for the Master of Dietetics at Deakin University. Most of all though, Joanna loves working with her team of dietitians at Everyday Nutrition where she supports people to manage their IBS and learn to enjoy food again.
