GUThe claims in this video are based on the degree of fermentation of foods, that is, the FODMAPs present in them.
FODMAPs are the group of fermentable foods that are poorly absorbed by our bodies and can cause intestinal discomfort. They are classified as oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols.
FODMAPs and Irritable Bowel Syndrome:
FODMAPs increase the amount of fluid in the intestine. They can also cause excessive gas. These foods are easily fermented by colonic bacteria. The increased fluid and gas in the intestine leads to bloating and changes in the rate at which food is digested. This results in gas, pain, and diarrhea. Eating less of these types of carbohydrates can help reduce the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.
Low FODMAP Protocol:
The LOW FODMAP protocol is an excellent option when an IBS flare-up is occurring. It is also ideal for identifying food intolerances. So far, studies have shown that a low-FODMAP diet can improve IBS symptoms. One study found that 76% of IBS patients who followed the diet reported symptom improvement. Therefore, it’s an excellent strategy for improving digestive health. It works to improve constipation, diarrhea, bloating, and abdominal pain.
