About me

Hi, I’m Diana! I share healthy, plant-based recipes that are gentle on the gut.
As someone with IBS and vegan since 2019, I know how challenging it can be to balance a vegan diet with a low-FODMAP approach. It can feel confusing, restrictive, and overwhelming at times. Switching to this way of eating changed everything for me. It helped me understand my body, reduce symptoms, and create meals that truly support my digestion—while still enjoying food.
