We spend three quarters of a billion pounds on probiotic products that promise to balance our microbiome. We sip on kombucha and pickle kimchi. The evidence stacks when we discuss the connection between our brain and gut. With two out 10 people in the UK suffering with IBS, and no cure for those who suffer with IBS, severe IBS symptoms can heavily implode on peoples lives.
In this episode I speak to Dr Jane Muir, lead dietitian at Monash university. Researchers at Monash discovered certain short chain carbohydrates could not be digested and caused aggravation for many people with IBS, naming these, FODMAPs. Although research suggests that there is not one single cause for IBS, there are a variety of treatments, including that can help improve symptoms and thus quality of life.
We discuss how a low FODMAP diet may help improve symptoms of IBS, alongside other treatments such as CBT, hypnotherapy and movement.
