If your symptoms include bloating and wind, you may need to focus on foods that provide a soluble form of fibre. This may be found in psyllium husks, oats and some fruit – this type of fibre has a lower rate of fermentation so may be more suitable.
One reason the low-FODMAP diet may not work is that you may not have IBS but actually have another disorder. Your healthcare provider may need to do more tests, or you may need to go to a specialist. Other possible diagnoses include: Inflammatory bowel disease.
Recap. Soda and milk may aggravate your IBS. Better choices are unsweetened or lightly sweetened ice tea and alternative milks. Avoid soy milk and artificial sweeteners.
Whilst lactose in cheese can trigger IBS symptoms, it may also be down to the high fat content. Even a low lactose cheese can cause IBS flare ups if eaten in excess. But cheese may be ok in small portions for many people with IBS. You don't need to go completely dairy free.
As many of you know, salads are a nutritious powerhouse chock full of antioxidants, healthy fats, and lean proteins. They are also a great source of fiber, a nutrient that is essential to gut health whether you have IBS-C, IBS- D, or IBS-M. Fiber not only helps you stay regular, but it also helps bind stool.
If you skip these foods for too long, you may starve helpful bacteria colonies and cultivate unhealthy bacteria. Over time, if you follow only strict low FODMAP eating, you might notice yourself getting more tired, having more headaches, constipation, muscular weakness, or getting sick more easily.
You may also be eating more starches and sugars from hyper-processed gluten free, low FODMAP packaged foods than usual, which may overwhelm the absorption capacity of a sensitive, hyper-active gut. If you suspect this, try eating more fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds and see how you feel.
Unfortunately, many newbies to the low FODMAP diet remove foods entirely from their diet instead of swapping them. Deleting foods from your diet can reduce the calories (energy) available for your body and your nutrient intake, which can make you feel tired or headachy.
Eggs. Eggs digest easily and are a safe choice for people with IBS. Eggs can be enjoyed hard-boiled, soft-boiled, scrambled, or poached. Omelets and frittatas can be your meal of choice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and make a great option when eating out in a restaurant.
Peanut butter is considered low FODMAP when eaten in moderation. Medical experts often recommend low FODMAP for people with IBS. A tablespoon of peanut butter can be a suitable snack for IBS.
Cereal. A person with IBS can enjoy a bowl of gluten-free cereal with lactose-free milk as a snack. The ACG lists corn flakes as a suitable choice for people following the low FODMAP diet.
