Nutritional approach for irritable bowel syndrome Permitted and restricted foods along with sample meal ideas

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disorder. It is estimated to affect 10 to 20% of the population in developing countries. It most commonly affects people aged 16 to 30 years. It turns out that a higher percentage of patients are women.

The diet should be tailored to the type of IBS a person is struggling with. In IBS with diarrhea, an easy-to-eat diet with a restriction on fats (especially those of animal origin) and fermenting sugars in the intestines is recommended.

The best products for people with diarrhoea are: starch from potatoes and refined cereal products, e.g. Marchew, tart apple, dill, spinach, white rice, plain bread or potato flour, small cassava (coconut, cashew, pearl cashew), vegetables and fruits containing soluble fiber (having the ability to absorb water, so its sources are helpful in treating diarrhea), etc. Vegetables and fruit with a soluble fibre content (such as salt, manna, pearls), vegetable fats (calf and fish), fresh rice, bananas, protein derived primarily from lean meat and fish, eggs, fresh seafood and seafood fats, vegetable oils (salt fats and coconut oil, soybean oil, olive oil, etc.).

Products containing: insoluble fiber, lactose (milk, dairy products), fructose (fruit, fruit juices, jams), sorbitol and mannitol (chewing gum, gelatinous sweets, dietary chocolates, some candies, fresh and dried peppers, cherries, pears, peas, peaches) should be avoided in poultry form. Products not recommended for IBS include white rice, clear grain, fine sandwiches, potato-based products, gelatin, bananas, fatty cereals (yellow, melted), fast garlic.
