Better digestion changes everything. From IBS, Crohn's and Colitis to bloating, brain fog, low energy, low thyroid, hormones and more.

Dr. Kate Ricciardi mission is to help you create your wellness by transforming health from the inside out. As the creator of Digestion by Design and the Root Method, Dr. Kate is committed to helping you not only connect the dots, but discover the potential root causes of symptoms so you can achieve long lasting change and results. 

As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Physical Therapist, Dr. Kate's unique experience, education and perspective of nutrition and the body takes your wellness to the next level. Together, let's get you out of the old way of health, looking at one condition, symptom at a time and instead put it all together, seeing you as a whole person.

Generalized 'try this, eliminate that' recommendations only go so far. We not only need to look at the gut, but the digestive system too, and that's what most people miss. It's about much more than just food.  With a custom curated plan, designed just for you, it will help you not only discover your best foods, but get you out of the overwhelm of what to do, try next and how to support you, your body, your lifestyle.

Specializing in anti-inflammatory wellness for IBS, Crohn's, Colitis, SIBO, low energy, bloating, hormones, autoimmune conditions, women's health.
