You're advised to seek a clinical diagnosis of IBS and consult your healthcare team for personalised advice specific to your condition. Please do this before changing your diet, lifestyle or medication. The low FODMAP diet is not intended for weight loss or calorie restriction. It is a clinically approved diet for the treatment of IBS in medically diagnosed sufferers, where other first-line treatments have proved ineffective. You are not advised to undertake a low FODMAP diet without direct supervision from a FODMAP-trained dietitian. The restrictive phase of the low FODMAP diet should generally only be followed for a maximum of 6 weeks. Your personal timeframe for completing the diet will need to be tailored to meet your medical and nutritional needs. A FODMAP-trained dietitian should assess and monitor this to avoid the risk of nutritional deficiencies and disordered eating.
