At Wilbo’s Blends we are passionate about the blended diet and the life changing impact it can have for people with a feeding tube.

We know that tube feeding can be overwhelming, it is hard to understand and navigate all the information in order to do what is best for you or your loved one.

The blended diet for tube feeding has become increasingly popular for good reason. More research is being published all the time showing the benefits a real food blended diet can have on gastrointestinal symptoms like reflux, vomiting, constipation, gas and discomfort or diarrhoea. People on a blended diet often report feeling better, with increased energy and improved skin and hair. Food is fundamental to our health and overall wellbeing and real food is more social and inclusive.

Our dietetics appointments are designed to give you a much more personal level of support at any stage of the tube feeding journey. Whether you are preparing for a new feeding tube, exploring switching from formula or planning for removing the need for a feeding tube, our dietitians can help guide you along the way.

  • Dr Sarah Durnan

    Sarah has worked with tube-fed children and young people and their families for twelve years as a dietitian at Nottingham University NHS Foundation Trust. In clinical practice she saw firsthand the benefits blended diet can have on physical symptoms such as reflux, retching and vomiting. Her doctoral research explored individual parents’ experiences of choosing a blended diet for their tube fed child.

  • Hannah Baker RD

    Hannah qualified in 2016 with a Master of Nutrition and Dietetics degree from the University of Nottingham and has worked as a registered dietitian within the NHS since this time. Hannah has been looking after the clinical nutritional needs of tube fed children for over 6 years. Within the past 12 months, Hannah has specialised further into the field of inherited metabolic diseases.
