Fodmap Diets
Fodmaps are a group of poorly digested carbohydrates which can worsen IBS. The low FODMAP diet is a 2-6 week elimination diet that involves removing high FODMAP foods from the diet to assess whether FODMAP rich foods are triggering your tummy troubles. The low FODMAP diet is a learning diet rather than one that you stay on forever. The goal of the diet is to help you determine your personal dietary triggers.
FODMAPS?
Recent research investigating diet and IBS symptoms has focused on a large group of dietary sugars called FODMAPs -- fermentable oligo-saccharides, di-saccharides, mono saccharides and Polyols.
These sugars can be poorly absorbed in the small intestine and fermented by bacteria to produce gas. Current research strongly suggests that this group of sugars contributes to IBS symptoms.
FODMAP Diet Plans
A Nutrition consultation will guide you through a low FODMAP elimination diet phase, and then how to re-introduce FODMAPs, in a methodical manner, to assess your tolerance to various FODMAP containing foods. This generally allows for a less strict Fodmap, which is easier to sustain long term.
The nutrition consultation will help develop a personalized and well balanced eating plan that can be used long term and result in a happy healthy digestive system.
