This Is Probably A Repetitive Question. I Didn't See It Recently In The Q&A. Has Anyone Had Success For Their IBS-D Using The FODMAP Diet?

Thanks for your reply. So as long as you don’t cheat you don’t have any flare-ups? I’m ok with dairy. I eat yogurt everyday. It’s more like increased sugars like chocolate but some days I’m fine even if I cheat with chocolate. I do feel better if I stay completely away from that which you think would be easy to do but not always. Lol

Going gluten free helped the most. I also did a FODMAP trial. I felt better with no onions, green pepper and limited tomato sauce. I have incorporated that into my lifestyle. I do love peppers and other colors are o.k. if cooked. Give it a good trial time and than add food back.

For me I would say the fodmap diet had a lot of good information. Although it is not 100% for me it is 85% and yes because of the fod map diet I found out that it confirmed some harsh triggers. It’s a good guide to follow!!!

FODMAP is a life changer in a good way.

No, I haven"t tried this diet, but should give it a try.
This time of year meaning Christmas will be really difficult not attempting to eat the good things like Chocolate, I know I certainly love my Chocolate.
