What diet is effective when you have a stomach ache, diarrhea and/or constipation, bloating and intestinal gas? These symptoms that can indicate irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) must be carefully analyzed in order to individually determine how to eat so that the symptoms are alleviated. In this video, with Professor Harry SOKOL, gastroenterologist at PuMS College, we explain the impact of FODMAPs (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols) on our colon and why they cause discomfort. Discover foods rich in FODMAPs, such as onions, milk, apples and sugar-free candy, and how they ferment in the intestine, producing gas. Learn how to identify if you are sensitive to FODMAPs and how to structure a diet to test this sensitivity. The FODMAP-free diet is particularly effective for people suffering from irritable bowel syndrome, offering a notable reduction in symptoms. However, this diet is not a miracle treatment for all digestive disorders and should not be used as a weight loss diet. FODMAP-FREE DIET: is it effective? (+tips against irritable bowel syndrome)
