Whats is a low FODMAP diet?Updated 2 months ago

A low FODMAP diet is a type of elimination diet that can improve IBS symptoms. It involves reducing the amount of FODMAPs you eat for 2-6 weeks by swapping high FODMAP foods for low FODMAP alternatives.   

If IBS symptoms improve on a low FODMAP diet, it's likely that you are sensitive to FODMAPs. The next step is to follow FODMAP reintroduction, which helps figure out which FODMAPs you’re sensitive to and in what amounts. You can read more about a low FODMAP diet here.
