Kate Scarlata is a registered dietitian and NY Times Best Selling author with expertise in digestive health. Her new book, The Low FODMAP Diet: Step by Step, was published in December 2017. Kate launched a grassroots campaign called “I Believe in Your Story” which raises funding for research for IBS and provides a safe place for patients to share their stories on her blog and on Instagram. She advocates for IBS patients so they can get the medical guidance and care they desperately need and deserve. Kate also has a private practice in Massachusetts.

This was an outstanding podcast. I finally feel I understand FODMAPS. Scarlata explained in such a clear way. I am no longer reluctant to approach this topic. Thank you!

Awesome podcast episode! I’ve always been an avid reader of Kate’s blog since I was diagnosed with IBS and was now on the low FODMAP diet.
Thanks Soundbites for having a FODMAP podcast episode! Hoping for more!
Thanks Amy! It was a very popular episode so I will definitely plan on having Kate back!
