Something About Alana
Hey, I’m Alana!
A foodie living with gastroparesis.
Cooking and food has always been a passion of mine. In 2020 when I was diagnosed with gastroparesis, I thought my love for food had to end, but I’m here to show you it didn’t!
About Alana
I’ve always had a love for food and cooking, but my world turned upside down when I lost my ability to eat due a condition called gastroparesis.
Shortly after I was diagnosed, I joined 15% of the gastroparesis community, who need a feeding tube.
I felt like I would never eat again.
However, I never gave up, and listened to the wise words of my gastroenterologist, “the stomach is a muscle, you have to use it, or you’re going to lose it.”
Through trial and error, I’ve found recipes that are tummy friendly and eventually got my tube removed!
I’m here to show you that even if you have digestive issues, you can still have love for food.
