Hi, we apologise for this very delayed reply. There was some miscommunication on our part.
Treating other health concerns prior to starting the low FODMAP diet must be assessed on an individual basis. It may not be necessary to treat candida in your case but it would be best to assess your situation with an accredited dietitian or GP.
Sorry again for the slowness in reply. Regards, Monica Kubizniak
I am in the process of getting diagnosed, I just got put on Meds for it. And I feel lost. I have been vegetarian for two years, I don’t eat eggs and pretty much any dairy. But my diet mostly consists of beans and fruits and veggies, so I honestly have no idea what I can even eat! I’m so glad I found your channel! I am hoping it can help me understand how to live with this while maintaining my pretty much vegan life.
Thanks! This approach definitely seems like the missing piece of the puzzle for me.
Hey great video… Interesting study here suggesting in the future analysis of individuals microbiome could determine who will respond in the Low FODMAP diet… the science is getting there…
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10620-017-4893-3
[sadly this paper is behind a paywall… but essentially suggesting gut profiling is possible, at least in a research setting]
It’s interesting to hear there are differing opinions of how long the elimination diet should last, because until watching this video I was led to believe it would be between 4-6 and 4-8 weeks long… Great break down video though, learned a lot about how the process really works so thank you ✌️ xoxo
Also I had terrible trouble with sugar-free stuff. Sorbitol, Manitol & Xylitol had terrible effects-stomach pains/cramps & horrible diarrhea.
There are some things on the suitable list I cannot abide-oranges, lemons & strawberries. Basically anything with a high acidic content cause really bad indigestion problems & then problems when passing-mucus in the stool, trapped air etc. I cannot process meat properly either. The blander the better for my digestive system.
Good info. I’ve just started low FODMAP because of SIBO. Few days in and I’ve already noticed positive change in symptoms and reduction in my facial acne (turns out SIBO was triggering my acne). I hope to continue this diet till mid Jan and then start reintroducing foods.
Carrie, I just found your channel! Just subscribed, I relate to this so much, thank you so much for sharing these types of videos!!
I’m proud of my GP actually doing thorough testing and then educating me about the fodmap diet. I’m on my second (too down) week and I’m quite enjoying the meals (there are lovely fodmap cookbooks). My boyfriend doesn’t have IBS and also feels a significant improvement in bowl health just by mostly eating my diet.
Quite interesting insight, what’s your opinion on metabolism issues as a cause of IBS?
Does anybody know of any other way to be part of a low fodmap group that isn’t Facebook? I had a very nasty stalking and harassment experience and fb were really unhelpful when I asked for help, so I’m not on it anymore.
Mine started after a stomach bug! I’ve always had digestive upset but after the stomach bug I got gastritis and now got diagnosed with IBS-it really puts a damper on my life lol
My severe symptoms of SIBO occurred immediately (bowel impaction the next day) following a short-term Fentanyl opioid anesthesia. ( Never had constipation prior)These symptoms continued for nearly a year( with a 20-pound weight loss to 95 pounds) until I found the online site of Dr. Pimentel and began the herbs recommended by him. I also restrict sugar intake. This regimen has been very helpful in minimizing the problematic issues of SIBO Hope this information will be beneficial to others.
Thanks for helpful video. I would like to know if it is possible, if there are to many foods to avoid, to bring them back after certain period or we need to avoid them until the end of our lives? Could these bacteria be somehow starved and permanently eliminated or not?
The same thing happened to me IBS after antibiotics for giardia. Do you know how we can repair our gut microbiome?
This is glorious, been searching for “constipation and ibs” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across Mackorny Defeat IBS Blueprint (just google it )? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my buddy got amazing success with it
Thanks for explaining how different fodmaps affect different people.P
A really detailed & concisely delivered video on the topic! Best I’ve found yet, thanks!
Funily enough after suffering from IBS problems all my life & only really discovering what my problems were a couple of years ago I have gradually switched to eating bananas, grapes, spinach, lettuce, courgettes & parsley with incredible results. Only just heard about the FODMAP recently & funnily enough all these things are on the suitable foods list.
Today I have added blueberries & later on will be trying parsnips with my dinner. Apples & Ice Cream were two of the worst things-now I know why
Oh, I am so happy I have found you!! I am trying to figure out if this is the problem I have. I was diagnosed with gluten intolerance but sometimes without eating gluten I still get the symptoms, although a lot less than I use to on a gluten diet. It’s interesting to hear you talk about all this.I can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos!! thank you!
Hello
This is a fabulous channel, I agree with the other person who commented.
I have learned a lot from this video which is wheat contains a sugar, fructan I think, but I thought I had a gluten problem and I’m picking up some blood test forms today from my gp to rule it out but Bread has been the last piece of my jigsaw & now it makes sense. I can’t believe foods can be reintroduced… At the moment the way my body reacts to garlic and mushrooms seems hard to believe I could eat it one day haha, but I am hopeful. This video has been the best for me to understand. I’m not sure about the quantities of citris fruits though especially fresh orange juice and the monash app allows 1 teaspoon of honey apparently so I’ve been having 1 teaspoon of manuka a day in my herbal tea (roibos). I just wanted to say thanks very much for the video. Take care
I find that the small red lentils are easier to digest than the larger green ones who have too much fiber. It’s worth a try anyways. I personally don’t react to them eaten in a reasonable amount. They still need to be rinsed before cooking.
Thanks for sharing this info. It brings a different perspective to the whole approach of dealing with IBS.
just starting the low FODMAP diet thank you for the information it is a lot to digest (sorry for the pun:) ) I have a dietician but as usual all my questions are usually after the appointment so this is terrific
Thanks for the info but what if garlic and onions are a HUGE trigger everytime I eat it. I thought once u find a trigger, you avoid it?
I’m on week 1 of the elimination phase and even now I feel so much better so thanks for this information:-)
I’m glad you found the information provided useful. It can be a condition that is difficult to manage but with appropriate elimination and persistence, appropriate management can be achieved. Regards, Monica Kubizniak
what about trying low FODMAPs and Low histamine diet? seems very restrictive…
I’ve been studying amitriptyline for ibs and discovered a fantastic resource at Stomach Oracle Omnibus (google it if you’re interested)
Quality of life GAME CHANGER. Thank you guys. You’ve helped change my world.:)
I can’t tell you how thankful I am to have found you! Definitely subbed and going to the private Facebook group next. I’ve been researching all kinds of things to feel better from the IBS and now even further restricted by eliminating night shades due to awful arthritis flare ups plus embracing a plant-based vegan lifestyle. It’s a lot. Thanks for being so genuine and willing to share your experiences and insight with us!
how do you reintroduce foods? overtime i do i end up in pain or on the toilet:(
Thank you for your videos. Amazing work! I have done a 10 days water fast a year ago and now that I have had IBS for a few months I am thinking of doing another 10 day water fast, maybe 11 in oder to get rid of what is possibly SIBO and then re-feed with a FODMAP diet. Thoughts?
Also…Is isolate pea protein powder FODMAP?
Great video, lots of knowledge, well done! I do have a question: I did low FODMAP diet and the only thing I can’t seem to handle is really any red onion and garlic at all. Should I just avoid these forever or? I’ve been avoiding using red onion, pretty easy, and to get around the garlic issue, I’ve been using garlic infused oil. Thanks for your help!
I subbed. What’s your study title?
I was wondering, so you’re saying the low FODMap diet is useful for a limited time in order to make space for the good bacteria to develop more strains, but then you have to reintroduce the other foods for the prebiotics, correct? Thabk you!
Thanks Carrie, I have been on this program for almost a year and amazed how it has worked. I did have to enlist a dietitian, as I have IBS M and diabetes, having both is a hazard to say the least. It will be great when more of the medical community here is the USA start embracing this.
@bjchealthAU Thank you Monica! I appreciate the information.
This is so interesting, I’d definitely appreciate more videos!
I have a strange question, and it might sound really stupid but I’m an anxious person. I’ve just started the low fodmap diet elimination on Saturday but I have an operation coming up on the 13th Feb to do with my bladder. I got all stressed that I could lower my gut bacteria and it would be dangerous, I have no idea how these things work. That’s probably totally ridiculous but I’d rather ask! Thank you for all your help xx
Thankyou Carrie new to your site. I appreciate all that your sharing on the subject of IBS.
Thankyou so much for this. I was hospitalised with severe ibs pain, the doctor I saw had never heard of Fodmaps and told me to eat some toast and a banana!
I’m on day 4 of Low FODMAP and I feel much “cleaner” already.
Thanks for this video and your explanations x
Wow that’s so interesting. My IBS D started after food poisoning so that makes a lot of sense! Definitely would love to hear more!
Super useful videos Carrie, THanks for sharing this information!
IBS is something I struggle with on a weekly basis. Sometimes I’ll string together an entire week of awful tummy aches, and quick runs to the bathroom. But I can honestly say that I know my triggers. I know that with a better diet I can cope and handle my IBS with more ease. I’ve tried all kinds of medicines that just don’t work. What works best for me is eating more fresh non-processed foods, and staying away from triggers like.. fast food, too much chocolate, greasy foods, pre-packaged cheeses, whole milk, and even red meat. MORE THINGS LIKE turkey, eggs, almond milk, or lactaid milk, dark chocolate, bananas, salmon, fresh veggies, and avocados. <3 Sorry, long rant.. lol: MIKE:
Yes, more science please! I’m a very logical person and need to understand the “why” to be able to apply the “how” properly.
Hey carrie, you mentioned that after antibiotics things got worse:( and i guess it happened to me too, but what if i have to get on antibiotics for h. Pylori? Even though a lot of people said that they didn’t get rid of it….
This should be distributed to every GP across the country. Being asked by my GP to do FODMAP without support or referral was setting me up to fail. Please get in touch with Dr Nikki Kanani. Primary Care Medical Director to get this into SystmOne and Emis GP systems so that patients can be at least be given this content. Absolutely brilliant. My self supported FODMAP diet, second time round was made all the easier and ultimately successful with your resource. I would have not done it without this (2019 version) resource. THANK YOU.
