The holiday season has a special place in many people's hearts as we gather with loved ones and celebrate time-honored traditions. Of course, many of those traditions may involve food, and if you're managing a chronic GI condition, those traditions may be a little tricky. That's why we've invited back one of our favorite Registered Dietitians, Emily Haller, to offer some tips on navigating holiday meals while limiting the possibility of a flare up. Emily also discusses what holiday meals may have some hidden GI triggers in them, ingredient substitutes and whether or not using that special family dinner as a cheat meal may be right for you.

Living with an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) like ulcerative colitis can be a challenging journey for patients. But more and more patient advocates are willing to share their stories and connect with online communities for support. One of our recent favorites is Better Bellies By Molly. Molly joins us to share her experience with ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and why she decided to take her story to social media for the benefit of others who may be struggling with not just the physical symptoms of these chronic conditions, but the mental health impact as well. You can follow Molly on Instagram @betterbelliesbymolly or visit her website, betterbelliesbymolly.com to join her online community.

Upper- and lower-gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are highly prevalent among athletes during exercise (especially endurance athletes) and can negatively impact performance. In severe cases it can pose health risks too. So what's really going on in our guts when we're exercising at a high-intensity level? We asked Drew Triplett, DO from Dayton Gastroenterology to join the show and help explain exercise-induced GI distress. As a marathon runner, Dr. Triplett has a unique perspective and offers some tips for athletes trying to regulate their digestive system during training or events. This episode is produced in collaboration with the American College of Gastroenterology's Patient Care Committee.
