Suffering from IBS? The Low FODMAP Diet can help relief your symptoms and be free of IBS for good. Low FODMAP Lifestyle is the easiest way to look up which foods are high FODMAP and low FODMAP.
This app is build by Lifeplano and we know what IBS and the low FODMAP diet is about, because one of our founders have followed it himself. It is a very restrictive diet and therefore harder to follow, but we have made it so much easier with Low FODMAP Lifestyle.
*Functionalities*
- Low FODMAP food list
- Personal testing of every food
- More than 40+ recipes
- Basic knowledge about IBS and FODMAPs
*What is IBS - Irritable Bowel Syndrome?*
IBS is a condition where your gut have trouble digesting foods with certain carbohydrates: Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Mannitols and Polyols. Which carbohydrates you react too can be different from others, as the amount also can, which is why it is a very personal diet.
It is estimated by scientists at the Australian Monash University that 1 in 7 suffers from IBS and it is a lifestyle condition mainly present in western countries.
*What is the Low FODMAP Diet?*
Monash University are also the inventors of the Low FODMAP Diet. It is a diet that helps you find out exactly what carbohydrates and foods your gut reacts to and in what amount, so you can limit or exclude that from your diet going forward.
The IBS diet consist of three phases:
- Phase 1: The eliminations phase - Here you eliminate FODMAPs from your diet until you are symptom free.
- Phase 2: The reintroduction phase - Here you slowly reintroduce the different carbohydrates, and test which ones cause reactions.
- Phase 3: The personal diet phase - You now have a personal diet, but IBS can develop over time, so you need to retest foods again to see if your tolerance changed.
With our app you can also test new foods and drinks that havent been tested yet and see if you tolerate it. Examples could be a can of Pepsi or ketchup which are both processed groceries with unknown levels of FODMAPs.
The diet can seem very restrictive if you are new to it, and it is proved that restrictive diets are the hardest to follow. With Low FODMAP Lifestyle we have made the diet more available so it seems easier to follow and less restrictive. Follow our low FODMAP recipes, get symptom free and test new foods every week, to make your personal diet and low FODMAP food list.
