The routine was designed specifically for IBS, Improved Digestion, Anxiety, Stress and overall health. I kept...
  8. General Discussion
    Hi, Bit of a gross post, but has anyone else with IBSD experienced their food not digesting (as in coming out in their BMs)? I've found that no matter how easily digestible the food (and, believe me, I've done research on easily digestible foods!), I'm finding undigested material when I go to...

    Hi guys, So all tests so far have come back clear. Had standard bloods run, tumor marker tests done, F.O.B test carried out, and an ultrasound that came back clear too. So today my doc prescribed me creon (a medicine which gives the digestive enzymes produced by the pancreas) to take before...

    Hi all, Has anyone who is taking omeprazole found that they are no longer digesting certain foods? Without being too graphic, I've started to find that parts of previously digestible foods are turning up in my BMs (bell peppers, carrots etc). I'm really worried because this means I'm not...

  14. Diet
    Hello Everyone! I'm sorry if this question has been asked, but i'm curious to know... What is the hardest thing for you to live with on a Low FODMAP Diet? Don't get me wrong I'm happy on the diet as it makes me feel so much better, but I think for me it would have to be eating out with my...
  15. General Discussion
    Does anyone experience abdominal pain from drinking anything? Drinking water (or any fluid for that matter) triggers gas, cramping, and a bowel movement for me (often loose/diarrhea). It feels like a raw burning pain in my abdomen. This is alarming because I am not able to reach my daily...

    I can't find any studies on the link between early dinner time and efficient bowel evacuation. Maybe this is one reason why IBS-C / Gas / Leaky Gas is so poorly understood. Eating dinner earlier and diet has made a big difference to evacuation time for me so I hope this post helps those with...

    The FODMAP theory introduced the concept of a "personal threshold" to FODMAPs, meaning a point at which IBS symptoms began. The FODMAP diet is based on the principle of excluding all FODMAPs for 2 months then gradually reintroducing one FODMAP at a time to test tolerance. The FODMAP theory...
