1. This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union
Studies conducted at Monash University have shown that some carbohydrates, known as FODMAP, may contribute to the worsening of symptoms.Improperly absorbed carbs found in food, including dairy products, pulses, cabbage vegetables, as well as heavy foods, fatty foods, spicy foods and popular uses such as coffee and alcohol, can cause or worsen symptoms. Almost two-thirds of IBS patients link symptoms from the digestive tract to food.2. Is that how fodmap works in irritable bowel disease?
The onset and severity of symptoms are individual depending on the degree of absorption disturbance. in the first mechanism, FODMAP is poorly absorbed by the small intestine, causing an osmotic effect (drawing fluid to the digestive tract). the second action is based on rapid fermentation through the microflora of the colon, leading to the division of the intestine and the formation of gases that contribute to pain and swelling. although there is a clear emphasis on the limiting effects of the diet, it is worth noting that not all products of the FODMAMAP group can cause symptoms on both sides of the diaphragm.3. Dietary guidelines with a small amount of FODMAP
The step-by-step introduction is aimed at identifying the products that cause discomfort. Every meal eaten during the day (composition, quantity) and any symptoms that may occur after eating a meal should be recorded. A diet low in fermenting oligo-, di- and monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP is short for fermentable oligosacchcharides, disaccharide, monosachcharide and polyol) allows for the identification of the products causing discomforts. For this purpose, a dietary diary is recommended.4. What are the symptoms of fodmap intolerance?
Symptoms may occur almost immediately or after a period of time, most commonly abdominal pain, diarrhea and/ or constipation, vomiting, swelling.5. Examples of FODMAP-rich foods and their alternative counterparts
