NiMBAL (Nutrition in Immune Balance) defines its mission as "Helping patients, families, and healthcare providers integrate dietary therapy as treatment for Inflammatory Bowel Disease." NiMBAL is founded by David L. Suskind, MD, of Seattle Children’s Hospital Division of Gastroenterology, and Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Washington School of Medicine. While NiMBAL discusses the specifics of SCD and EEN, much of the content is relevant to all types of nutritional therapy and is a valuable resource regardless of diet of choice. The website covers a wide array of general nutritional therapy topics including basic IBD information, healthy eating guidelines, food philosophies, how to determine when nutritional therapy is right for you, managing stress, guidelines for followups with the medical team, meal planning, holidays and events, eating outside the house, problems related to diet, and kitchen/food/safety tips.

This page offers advice for determining if SCD is right for you, when it may not work, and when it may be best used in conjunction with traditional medical therapy. While it specifically mentions SCD, the advice on this page is relevant to most nutritional therapies.

This page details advice on implementing EEN and for transitioning from EEN to pharmaceutical therapy and/or SCD.

In this presentation from the Nursing and Advanced Practice Track at the 2018 Advances in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, Amy N. Donegan discusses nutrition therapy for the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

This comprehensive course will give you the tools and confidence you need to help your IBD patients feel better using food and nutrition.
