Have you ever wondered the difference between Crohn’s disease vs. ulcerative colitis?

So, who is Danielle Gaffen, MS, RDN, LD?
Danielle Gaffen is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and founder of Eat Well Crohn’s Colitis, a virtual tele-nutrition practice in the United States. Danielle's mom needed two feet of her intestines removed (she had an ileostomy that was ultimately reversed) and her husband has Crohn’s disease. Understanding the link between nutrition and gut disease prompted Danielle to obtain her master’s degree in Nutritional Sciences, become a registered dietitian, and ultimately specialize in nutrition for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
