Personal Chef

Irvington, NY

Looking for a chef who can help prepare meals that are suitable for someone with gastroparesis. This diagnosis means that my stomach is slow to empty and causes nausea The medical recommendations are to eat small meals, mostly carbs and protein (these leave the stomach fastest) and to avoid fat and fiber (they tend to be hard to pass through stomach).

As someone who has spent a lifetime prioritizing my health and nutrition this is very counter to what feels right for my body. I’m told blended soups, blended smoothies are good because they are easiest to exit the stomach. I’m struggling to keep my weight up because I have very little appetite.

I’m looking for someone who may have experience preparing food that offers nutrients but can be easily digested. Also wanting to to try to avoid glucose spikes which seems very challenging. Also happy for someone who is willing to learn as I know this is a rare diagnosis.
Hope someone can help.
