Kristi McCollom is a Holistic Nutrition Therapist and a 2004 graduate of the University of Georgia with a degree in Marketing. Kristi initially worked in new home sales and marketing for a decade. However, her life took a significant turn when her 2-year-old daughter was diagnosed with Early Onset Crohn’s Disease, a condition Kristi lovingly refers to as "a special belly." Despite what she was told, Kristi was convinced that diet must play a role in IBD. Four years of research and lots of trial and error finally resulted in the right dietary approach. Nutritional therapy has since become the primary component of her daughter’s IBD management. This experience not only improved her daughter’s health but also ignited Kristi’s own passion for cooking and nutrition. She opened Kristi’s Kitchen, a meal prep service focused on providing fresh, unprocessed food made with love. Now through her website, The Special Belly and her work at Nutritional Therapy for IBD, Kristi strives to empower others with the resources and excitement to eat intentionally and improve their own health outcomes through the use of nutrition.
