Hey everyone, I'm looking for people to test my iPhone app for managing IBS symptoms through the low-FODMAP diet.

What's required from you: keep a good log of your food, stress, physical activity and symptoms for at least 90 days — going through all the phases of the recovery program — and most importantly give me feedback on the app: what's convenient, what's not, what works and what doesn't.

Everyone who takes the logging seriously will get a free yearly premium subscription with all features.

I have IBS myself, so I built this app from my own experience — and I managed to stabilize how I feel. Hope it helps you too.

If you're interested — DM me directly.

Hi guys, I’ve recently been put on a LowFodmap diet due to stomach issues. This June Im graduating and want to take some family and friends out to eat, but I have no idea what kind of places I’ll be able to tolerate. Anyone know any restaurants in NYC that have had good options or have been able to accommodate food for them? Or are there any general types of restaurants you would recommend? Thanks

I am 8 months postpartum and still on miralax everyday. I'm still nursing (have been for over 4 years straight). My most recent pregnancy I was either constipated or full blown diarrhea, back and forth the entire time.

I started getting awful stomach cramping after dinner/before bed and horrible gas. I thought it was maybe just the pregnancy. Well it is still here....it's so bad. I cut out onion/garlic and a few other foods and that is a day and night difference (a week into this) and i'm working on getting 25g fiber from better sources (no protein bars/low carb tortillas) but from sweet potatoes, chia seeds, oatmeal, etc.

Any else go through this? I think i'm having intolerances to fodmap foods combined with not enough fiber from the right sources/slow gut movement from hormones.

My doctor ofc wasn't much help :(

Hi, I really struggle atm. I am veryy underweight and my main issues apart from that are severe visceral hypersensitivity/ibs apparently caused by nervous system dysregulation and my system being stuck in fight or flight for years.

I have bloating and it is extremly painful I also have bowel issues as in very slow motility and just a weak digestion in general.

I am low fodmap atm but it only helps a bit tbh but better than not low fodmap so I would like to keep it that way. I tried every supplement/probiotics whatever you name it I tried it. However, nothing helped which now makes sense as my nervous system is a main driver.

I now am so underweight that it affects my health a low and I need to gain like 20kg. But how?

I did have a dietician but she could not help me that much and I also tried therapy and stuff like that as well as antidepressants but my main issue is bloating and low weight now.

What snacks or foods can I implement into my diet? What to avoid? What is naturally hard to digest? I feel bad about eating white rice or souerdough or sugar and dairy as everyone says that is not great for gut health and all but what is true. I struggle so bad.

Also what meals and mealtimes are good?

Anyone with experience with visceral hypersensitivity or gaining weight with such? It is such a pain and I am soo desperate.

I am a 20yk female btw not working atm living at home still.

I also used to struggle with orthorexia/anorexia and am scared it is creeping back in now that I lost so much weight.

Thank you for any tip or attempt to help me🙏🏻

I have an intolerance to almonds, coconuts, oats and dairy so I’ve just been buying lactose free greek yogurt, until I found out Chobani apparently was in a lawsuit for causing cancer. Anyone know of any lactose free yogurt brands that don’t have any probiotics or cause cancer? I’m so stuck!

hi y'all i got a question i couldn't find an answer to. so as most of us know the white part is high fodmap but most people tolerate the green parts. my question is the part where it kind of... transitions. where the outside is green but when you look inside there's some crunchier white parts and not just the green.

idk if anyone knows what i mean, but do y'all tolerate those parts? or just eat the all green parts? bc those parts are usually very little :(
