FODMAPs and irritable bowel syndrome

  1. In Australia a diet, the FODMAP diet, has been tested that caused fewer complaints for more than 70% of people suffering from irritable bowel syndrome. With the FODMAP diet, all foods that are rich FODMAPs (Fermentation of Oligosaccaharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides And Polyols) have been removed from the daily diet and replaced by foods that contain little or no FODMAPs. The diet is based on the fact that many people with irritable bowel syndrome suffer more from certain foods (FODMAP rich foods) than other foods (low FODMAP foods). This is because there is a suspicion that in people with irritable bowel syndrome, some sugars enter the colon partially or completely undigested. The colon contains bacteria that convert these sugars into gases and substances that stimulate and irritate the colon. In addition, the sugars can attract moisture. This can cause the bowel to swell and a bloated stomach.

FODMAPs are in many ready-to-eat foods and these are best avoided and labels should be read very carefully. In practice, people who follow the FODMAP diet eat a lot of fresh and unprocessed food. After the elimination phase, one or two foods are added. If the complaints return, these foods will be stopped and you will return to the elimination phase.
