🚨 Ignite is adding another team member! 🤩

Hi, I'm Casey! I'm so glad you found your way here.

I'm a Registered Dietitian trained at the University of Alberta, with over a decade of experience supporting people in building a healthy relationship with food and their bodies. My work has always lived at the intersection of nutrition science and the whole person. I'm endlessly curious about how stress shapes digestion, how our relationship with food reflects how we feel about ourselves, and why healing and energy are rarely just about what's on the plate.

I'm not here to hand you a meal plan and send you on your way. I believe you already hold a tremendous amount of wisdom about your own body, and my job is to help you access it, while bringing my clinical expertise to the table. I'll always provide clear, practical nutrition guidance and we'll co-create every step.

When it comes to gut health, I deeply respect its complexity—and I approach it knowing it rarely exists in isolation from your nutrition, nervous system, and health history.

Areas of focus:

🍉 Digestive health and gut-brain connection
🌶️ IBS, bloating, and functional gut concerns
🍍 Nervous system and its relationship to digestion
🍓Nutrition and mental health
🍌Nutrition for strength, muscle, and sport performance
🫛Nutrition as a foundation for leadership
🍒Women's health throughout the lifespan
🫐Healing your relationship with food

I'm also a published author, TEDx speaker, yoga teacher, and certified professional coach for leaders and entrepreneurs. These aren't footnotes — they're part of why I show up to nutrition work the way I do.

If you're looking for a dietitian who will truly listen, ask good questions, and meet you where you are — I'd love to connect, click here to book: https://ignitenutrition.ca/blog/team/casey-berglund/

Every new year is a time to reflect on what's important in life 🤔 and we think regular bowel movements are underrated and deserve a spotlight 💩🤩

Here are 5 simple tips to get your gut health in sync with a regular routine:

1) 🥞Eat breakfast to provide BULK and help stimulate a bowel movement. Most people are most likely to have a bowel movement in the morning, and food can help pave the way and push things down.

2) 🥤Drink plenty of water. Think of water like lubrication to your bowels. Your p**p needs hydration so it is nice and soft. Also, have you ever gone down a waterslide without water? Ouch.

3) 🥝Focus on fibre. Not a surprise here. Fibre and water are also best friends. Pairing one with the other tends to be a good idea. If you consume a balanced diet with various foods, it is likely you'll hit your fibre goal. If you fall short, there are a variety of fibre supplements you can incorporate to hit those targets.

4) 🧖Just relax. Nothing is worse than having to p**p in public. Or at your new partner's house with them lingering just outside the door on the bed. Finding a protected bathroom time to have your movement without feeling rushed or stressed is essential. We are not p**ping in fight or flight mode.

5) 🚶Find time to move. Nothing keeps the guts moving like moving your body. It's true, regular movement can help keep you regular.

If you're looking for more tailored advice, reach out to one of our lovely Registered Dietitians who are experts at all things gut health.

P**p happy in 2026 💩

Ignite is growing again! 🥳 Meet our newest team member Caroline!

Nutrition has been a long-held value for me, though, as a young girl, I took healthy eating too far. I refused fast food and controlled food intake too rigidly, only to overeat on socially acceptable occasions where an abundance of food was present.With education, practice, and patience, I’ve found a balance between healthy eating and enjoyment; a unique perspective on food that I love sharing with others. I help people regain control over food so they can eat without guilt and ditch diets for good. I practice with body neutrality, follow intuitive eating principles and am skilled at guiding people through healthy weight management and health optimization.

I have been practising dietetics since 2017 and am registered in BC and Alberta.

In addition to my nutrition experience, I have taught English abroad for 3 years. Being able to step into another career path has shown me the challenges of keeping nutrition a priority. I can empathize more with busy people trying to find a place for nutrition in their lives amongst all the other competing priorities. My day always starts with a coffee and finishes with a chapter from a book. I have an insatiable travel bug and curiosity for the world. Joyful movement is a staple in my life and comes in many forms (weightlifting, yoga, walking, tennis, and more). I love to cook, bake and of course, eat.

My Adult Specialties:

🍇 Building a healthy relationship with food
🍉 Disordered eating
🍋 Healthy, sustainable weight management
🍒 Women's health
🍏 PCOS
🍓 Fertility/pre-natal nutrition
🥑 Pregnancy nutrition
🥝 Post-partum & breastfeeding nutrition
🌶️ Digestive health (IBS, constipation, diarrhea, bloating, and more)
🫐 Nutrition for optimizing health & disease prevention

My Pediatric Specialties:

👶 Infant & child nutrition
🥣 Starting solids
🥛 Cow’s milk protein allergy
💩 Constipation
🫤 Selective eating

My mission is to share my love of food and help others find a spot for health in their busy lifestyles. To work with me just click here:

⁉️Feeling overwhelmed when you search PCOS supplements online? With so many products or influencers promising hormone balance, better cycles, or instant results, it’s hard to know what actually works.

At Ignite Nutrition, our registered dietitians take an evidence-based and practical approach to PCOS management. The truth is that supplements can play a helpful role in managing PCOS, but they aren’t a cure or a quick fix.

Supplements work best when paired with the foundations of PCOS care:
✅️ nutrition
✅️ lifestyle
✅️ medical support

Click the link for the top 5 supplements for PCOS and we’re not just pulling these out of thin air. These are supplements that research shows can make a real difference for women with PCOS. My hope is that this post will help you decide which ones might be right for you.

➡️ Vitamin D
➡️ Omega-3 Fatty Acids
➡️ Inositol
➡️ Berberine
➡️ N-Acetylcysteine (NAC)

🦠 With back to school comes alllll the illnesses but not all diarrhea in kids is caused by stomach bugs.

⚠️ Diarrhea is when bowel movements are more frequent, loose, and watery than usual.

💥 In children, sometimes this can be completely normal, sometimes it might mean your kiddo is unwell, and other times there could be more going on to cause these changes in stool frequency and consistency. At Ignite Nutrition we hear it all, as experts in gut health we have the knowledge and tools to help!

Normal bowel habits in kids are:

💩 Kids 3 years of age and older typically have 1-3 bowel movements per day, ideally, they are having at least 1 bowel movement every day – as they grow into teens bowel movements might be once every 2-3 days

💩 Formed, soft, smooth, and easy to pass is the ideal consistency of stool

💩 The colour and thickness of a child’s p**ps will change depending on what they eat. You will see a noticeable change in colour, smell, thickness, or texture when babies go from breastmilk or formula to cow’s milk and then eventually to solids

**It is important to note that occasionally, changes in stool are normal. A bout of passing stool every other day or having more loose, watery consistency can be normal. It is when this becomes a more chronic, ongoing issue that further investigation might be worth pursuing.

Indications for diarrhea in kids:

💩 Loose, watery, unformed bowel movements or liquid bowel movements
💩 Urgency of getting to the nearest toilet or accidents
💩 Looser stool accompanied by fever, vomiting, nausea

🥔 Have you made our prebiotic potato salad yet?
⁠
❓️What's the difference between probiotics and prebiotics you ask?⁠
⁠
🦠 Probiotics are the gut-supportive bacteria that live in your digestive tract and keep you healthy. ⁠
⁠
💥 Prebiotics aren’t living bacteria at all. They are beneficial compounds that act as food for bacteria (and keeps them healthy so they can keep us healthy). Prebiotics are undigestible parts of food that reach the colon without being absorbed in the small intestine. These undigested particles act as fuel for the large quantity of bacteria in the colon. They can be found in a variety of different foods 👇🏼

💥 One type of prebiotic is called resistant starch. This particular prebiotic is found in whole grains, seeds, pulses, green bananas, and potatoes! However, cooking or heating foods can greatly reduce the resistant starch content.

⚠️ BUT we can actually reverse some of that by allowing the foods to cool after cooking them. That’s right! Eating chilled potatoes (like this cold potato salad!), rice, or oatmeal increases the amount of resistant starch they contain.

This is your sign to get those prebiotics in, click here for the recipe: https://ignitenutrition.ca/blog/good-for-your-gut-low-fodmap-potato-salad/
