Thankyou so much for this. I was hospitalised with severe ibs pain, the doctor I saw had never heard of Fodmaps and told me to eat some toast and a banana! 😫 I’m on day 4 of Low FODMAP and I feel much “cleaner” already. Thanks for this video and your explanations x
Oh, I am so happy I have found you!! I am trying to figure out if this is the problem I have. I was diagnosed with gluten intolerance but sometimes without eating gluten I still get the symptoms, although a lot less than I use to on a gluten diet. It's interesting to hear you talk about all this.I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos!! thank you!
I am in the process of getting diagnosed, I just got put on Meds for it. And I feel lost. I have been vegetarian for two years, I don’t eat eggs and pretty much any dairy. But my diet mostly consists of beans and fruits and veggies, so I honestly have no idea what I can even eat! I’m so glad I found your channel! I am hoping it can help me understand how to live with this while maintaining my pretty much vegan life.
Laura I'll be honest, it's so tough at the beginning because all the foods you usually turn to are off limits. But then it's so worth it to not feel unwell all the time! If you haven't already, download the Meal Maker Guide thing I made because it lists out the things you can eat in a way that makes it easier to throw a balanced meal together. And coincidentally we just started a private fb group and every one is sharing their vegan-lo-fo meals and favourite products 💗 x facebook.com/groups/1649597611746021/
Thanks Carrie, I have been on this program for almost a year and amazed how it has worked. I did have to enlist a dietitian, as I have IBS M and diabetes , having both is a hazard to say the least. It will be great when more of the medical community here is the USA start embracing this.
Gosh, yes, that must have been tricky to navigate. I'm very happy to hear it worked well for you! It's not long been part of the standard clinical guidelines here in the UK ( probably the same in the US), so it's on its way becoming more well known. I'm just wishing the point where all restaurants have a "lowFODMAP menu" comes soon!! x
I wish I could explain more! I reckon years down the line, with all the research, there will be loads of different specific conditions which all used to fall under the same IBS umbrella x
I actually just went to my natropath today and she wants me to take the SIBO test first and if I do, looks like I will be doing FODMAP! Did you take a SIBO test as well? What did you eat on prep day as a vegan if so? Also, thank you for subbing!! Love connecting w other beautiful vegans❤️❤️❤️
Great video, lots of knowledge, well done! I do have a question: I did low FODMAP diet and the only thing I can't seem to handle is really any red onion and garlic at all. Should I just avoid these forever or ? I've been avoiding using red onion, pretty easy, and to get around the garlic issue, I've been using garlic infused oil. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for helpful video. I would like to know if it is possible, if there are to many foods to avoid, to bring them back after certain period or we need to avoid them until the end of our lives? Could these bacteria be somehow starved and permanently eliminated or not?
This is the very best description of what causes bloating and pain. Thank you so much!
What a lovely comment! I'm so glad it was helpful :)
I’m on week 1 of the elimination phase and even now I feel so much better so thanks for this information :-)
omg I just got diagnosed with IBS and I felt so so so lost before watching this video😭 Thank you so much for what you do!
It's all overwhelming at first but you'll get it! x

Toast and banana?! Oh dear. So glad you discovered low FODMAP and its helping xx
A really detailed & concisely delivered video on the topic! Best I've found yet, thanks!

Hey! Super!!!! Way to go and Thank you!!!! Do you think people ever move away from certain food sensitivities?
Thanks for explaining how different fodmaps affect different people.P
I wish I could explain more! I reckon years down the line, with all the research, there will be loads of different specific conditions which all used to fall under the same IBS umbrella x
Amazing, thankyou!
Great research. Thanks.
U are the best, thanks for this! 💚💚💚 🇲🇽
Carrie, I just found your channel! Just subscribed, I relate to this so much, thank you so much for sharing these types of videos!!
Thank you! I just subscribed to your channel too ❣️ Do you think you'll be trying the low FODMAP diet? xx

To be fair, a bit too much yellow onion makes me feel fatigued for a few hours after eating, but I don't get really any other symptoms.
also, great videos, subscribed!
So will this work for SIBO?
awesome video! do you have any older sisters?

Not sure if you are but your sound a bit like a scientist!
Haha you got me! Kind of. I have a degree and masters in biomedical science 🤓I love understanding how to human body works!
The Wild Gut Project thought as much! Talking about osmotic pressure like a pro! My degrees are in biology too so I know how to Spot the signs
Us everyone here have SIBO then???
