Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
IBS is very common, affecting 10-20% of the adult population. Dietary modifications can greatly help to relieve the bloating, constipation, excess gas and diarrhoea that are associated with this troubling condition. Sufferers are often unsure what dietary (and other lifestyle habits) changes to make, which foods to eat or avoid, and are uncertain about the length of time a diet should be tried, so it is helpful to get the face-to-face guidance and support of a Registered Dietitian.
Alternatively, there are a few useful IBS resources available on the internet and one of these is Eat2beat IBS, a service providing a wealth of information (including medical) about IBS, diets targeted to symptoms and interactive guidance as specific diets are tried. Eat2beat IBS was created by myself and a London-based gastroenterologist, Dr John Meenan. It is an inexpensive way of obtaining reliable information and very helpful guidance on dietary self-management of IBS.
