What is the low FODMAP diet?

If you’re confused, let’s back up a little. I’ll explain what the low FODMAP diet is, and who it’s for.

The low FODMAP diet was created specifically to help people with IBS. The name stands for fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides And Polyols.

What are FODMAPs?

FODMAPs are different types of short chain carbohydrates found in many healthy foods, so they aren’t meant to be excluded from your diet long term. However, in some people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome high FODMAP foods can cause bloating, gas, cramps and abdominal pain by drawing water into the bowel. They can also be fermented by gut microbes which can cause gas production.

It’s hard to follow this diet without support

Following any elimination diet long term isn’t a good idea. Diet restriction tends to reduce important nutrients we need for a health body. Elimination diets followed for years might cause longer term issues.

So its AS IMPORTANT to get off the low FODMAP diet as it is to try it in the first place. And this is my speciality as an IBS nutritionist. 

How my guide can help you succeed with the low FODMAP diet

Following the low FODMAP diet process is difficult, but I can help you make it work.

Here’s how the Beginners Guide to the Low FODMAP Diet can help:

  • Clear process – every step you need to take is laid out so you know when and how to follow each stage of the diet.
  • All eventualities – I’ve taken hundreds of clients through this process, so I’m confident that nearly all questions have been answered. But if you need some additional support there is a Q&A section of the course where you can get answers to specific queries from me.
  • Up to date – Some online low FODMAP recipes are inaccurate, or use out of date information. Don’t waste anymore time searching online for the correct portion sizes.
  • The reintroduction process is a big part of this guide, and it can help you if you’ve been low FODMAP for years without knowing how to get off the diet.

        Who is the Ultimate low FODMAP diet guide for?

        This is for you if:

        • You’ve been told to follow the low FODMAP diet but you’re confused and don’t know what to eat.
        • Have been diagnosed with IBS but haven’t found a way to manage it
        • You’ve been to a doctor to get other conditions ruled out (e.g. coeliac disease, IBD)

        Who is the Ultimate low FODMAP diet guide NOT for?

        • It’s not suitable for anyone with an eating disorder or history of eating disorder. The amount of restriction and food rules are difficult to manage.
        • It’s not for anyone who hasn’t yet been to the doctors about their IBS. Please ensure you get checked out before you look at the low FODMAP diet. This will help to rule out other conditions before you start an elimination diet.
        • I’m not able to sell this to anyone in America or Canada I’m afraid.
