Publisher's Synopsis
Do you have Crohn's disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or any of the other numerous types of food intolerances? If this describes you, it might be worthwhile to try the low-FODMAP diet.
These are the scientific terms used to classify groups of carbs that are notorious for triggering digestive symptoms like bloating, gas and stomach pain.
The book offers evidence that supports the use of the Low-FODMAP diet to manage digestive symptoms, especially IBS. The authors walk you through precise diets, recipes, and menus to put the diet into practice. The recipes are easy to follow.
Each meal was created with consideration for the low-FODMAP diet. FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols, as the name would imply. This kind of carbohydrate results in the production of intestinal gas. The symptoms of IBS might worsen as a result of this gas.
