Tame Your Flame: Our Summer Guide to Digestive-Friendly Eating
With summer officially upon us, barbecue season is in full swing. That means blue skies, sunshine and making merry memories. Whether you’re invited to a backyard shindig, spending a day at the beach or enjoying fresh air at the park, summer grilling is filling up your weekend schedule.
But even with the promise of summer fun, some of us opt out of these types of activities because of the spread. The threat of grilled foods and other barbecue fixings halts participation due to gastrointestinal conditions, such as:
- Celiac disease
- Crohn’s disease
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
- Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
With these types of conditions, eating certain foods may agitate the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in an unpleasant onset of symptoms that causes social anxiety.
Don’t Let This Summer Sizzle Out
Thankfully, there is hope. Rather than giving up on the barbecue experience, customize it to fit what you need to keep your digestive system healthy.
That’s where we come in. This summer, the Digestive Healthcare Center (DHC) Grill Master has everything you need to keep your grilling experience from being a wash with our Tame Your Flame summer grilling series.

Gallstones form when bile stored in the gallbladder hardens. Your gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of your abdomen, just beneath your liver.

Hemorrhoids can affect your everyday life and make tasks like sitting, moving, or going to the bathroom especially difficult or painful. They may become inflamed and cause pain, itching, or bleeding.
