Low FODMAP Diet

for IBS / Bloating

A 3-phase elimination diet that removes fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs) that feed gut bacteria and cause gas and bloating in IBS sufferers.

How it works

FODMAPs are poorly absorbed in the small intestine and fermented by gut bacteria, producing gas that causes pain and bloating in hypersensitive bowels.

What to watch for

Requires guidance from a dietitian for the reintroduction phase. Long-term restriction is not recommended as it alters gut microbiome diversity. Not suitable with a history of eating disorders.
