We ’ ve also got two websites for you to check out :
• The Dietitian Connection website , where you ’ ll find all the gut health professional development initiatives we ’ ve got coming your way , a healthcare professional toolkit , resources to use in practice and social media tiles
• The consumer website , guthealthmonth . com , where you can send your patients and clients for consumer-friendly information and delicious gut-healthy recipes
Last but not least , we ’ re undertaking a very exciting initiative in the Victorian town of Poowong . We ’ re going to turn Poowong into Pooright ! Over a week in February , a crew of dietitians will work with selected households to implement gut healthy dietary and lifestyle changes . The campaign will kick off with a big bang event at the local football club , recruiting local community groups to create buzz and drive awareness about gut health . We ’ re hoping this case study will be picked up by the media and demonstrate to the nation how a dietitian can make a massive difference to gut health and overall wellbeing . Keep your eyes and ears peeled for exciting updates !
So please , stand with us this Gut Health Month and make as much noise as possible in the gut health space . We cannot do this without your support and involvement . Collectively , we can improve the health of all Australians , one digestive system at a time .
