FODMAP Diet?
Next week I have to start the FODMAP Diet as recommended by a Dietician. Does anyone here have any experience with it? I had never heard of it before she brought it up as a possible treatment for IBS.
Right now the biggest challenge I am facing is that I can have no onion, garlic, leeks etc (the allium family). Other than breakfast I have one or another with almost every meal.
It is interesting what things are restricted and what are ok. Blackberries are no go, but raspberries ok. No cauliflower, limited broccoli, but cabbage ok.
I have a comprehensive handout from the hospital, but I am wondering what foods/recipes have worked for others. I brown bag it 5 days a week and two of those days I have to bring lunch and dinner. Right now, I treat myself to one of the meals those days. I will not be able to do that starting next week.
I am very happy that my usual breakfast of granola, berries and Almond Milk are ok on the diet.
