About this product

Product Information

FODMAP is the current buzz word in the world of gut health and gastrointestinal distress. The low-FODMAP way can relieve even the most severe digestive discomfort. However, unlike most diets, this is not a fad. Rigorous clinical trials have proved the diet's effectiveness in treating symptoms of gut distress, and the scientific community, along with the general public, is excited about it and its role in treating functional gastrointestinal symptoms. FODMAP is an acronym for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols. These carbohydrates, present in a normal, healthy diet, are not fully digested and absorbed in the small bowel and go on to be fermented in the latter part of the bowel. This results in the production of gases and an influx of water, which, in susceptible individuals, can cause pain, discomfort, constipation or diarrhoea and excessive wind. Lowering the intake of FODMAPs in the diet can lead to substantial - many would say, miraculous - improvement in symptoms. The low-FODMAP diet has been shown in rigorous clinical trials to improve symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) such as bloating, abdominal pain, excessive wind and diarrhoea in up to 75 per cent of patients. The diet has also been used to help those with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, coeliac disease and other causes of gastrointestinal upset. This book demystifies the low-FODMAP diet and provides 125 tasty and delicious recipes for a happy gut.

    Good book for recipes for IBS and other disorders, appealing recipes

    The recipes are tasty and would appeal to the whole family not just the person on the diet. One thing, I made the yummy lime and coconut drizzle cake, really good but remember there is 200 grams of sugar in it. I’m not used to baking, so I am now more aware of the large amounts of sugar in sweet things! All the sugar I had and not used in the last year, It might be good to remind people of the sugar content. The mackerel curry is amazing and the home made curry powder is super and very easy to make. Also the spicy sardine linguine is great. Try the one pot ratatouille is good. Infusing you’re own garlic infused is a great idea. Sticky soya glazed drumsticks are yummy. Excluding onions and garlic has worked well for my IBS, it’s a good book if you have gut disorders such as IBS, I can’t say for other disorders.

    Not that helpful

    If, like me, you are diabetic and veggie, then for the most part this book isn't for. Add to that the fact that I can't get hold of many of the ingredients, then this book has proven all but useful.
