Publisher's Synopsis
You may have heard of the FODMAP diet from a friend or on the internet. When people say "FODMAP diet," they usually mean a diet low in FODMAP - certain sugars that may cause intestinal distress. This diet is designed to help people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and/or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) figure out which foods are problematic and which foods reduce symptoms.
There's no doubt that the low-FODMAP diet can work wonders.But people still hate it. Part of the reason lies in the diet's semi-extreme restrictiveness: A LOT of foods are strictly forbidden when following this regime.
Most people somehow get over the fact that they have to give up so many of their favorite foods but get stuck on the next challenge.
