u r right whenever i eat onion, bun, cheeze or popcorn it got so much worse that i even faint. i have gone through so many checkups what should i do. i did typhoided, hpyroli as doc suggested but it came negative..... Edit: after so many drug intakes dolgina 60 mg 10 tablets before breakfast and dinner, helped me relieve pain and podina syrup after every meal reduce acidity. Lastly itpod 150 mg and colief [mebeverine hcl] helped me with bloating and flatulence. Whoever is having Gerd or problem like mine it is 100% stomach related and don't eat too much meat. I finally got an intelligent doctor ☺
Had to post again 3 days later because this video really, really took away my anxiety and all the pain I was having from ibs and never knew why. Feel soooo much better 3 days later...and relieved.
Thank you so much for this post. I have suffered with IBS since I was very young. I have been on so many medications and supplements for my symptoms. Changing to a low fodmap diet has been very helpful. I believe there are so many people who suffer from this but have no idea that diet can make a world of difference! Thank you!!
Here's what I wanna know, how do you post videos at the exact time I need them? I'm laying in bed gassy bloated and crampy from high fodmaps last night... thank you guys for being so awesome!

Have not be following it very well, so I still have major issues with bloating & gas. Seeing you guys is just what I need! Thank you so much. I will be restarting the fodmap again and looking forward to finding out which foods really bother me and getting rid of this gas. You two are awesome!!

I can see in the comments that you've brought this important information to a lot of people who weren't previously aware of it, thanks for helping people get the right info that can help their IBS symptoms!
I was having such issues with my stomach and stumbled upon FODMAP a few years ago. Followed the diet religiously and felt immensely better within just a couple of days. Like a new person! I couldn’t believe how good I felt! I was committed to the diet for about 6 months and lost 20 lbs without even trying. I did weigh my food in grams and I believe that contributed to the weight loss. Seems that overeating made my symptoms worse. And, you’re so right about the stress and anxiety. These exacerbate the symptoms! Being around others and worrying if you’ll accidentally pass gas, or if your stomach is going to make weird noises is awful torture. My stomach has been bothering me so much again, so I’m going back low FODMAP. Lots of good info in this video 👏🏻
Thank you !!! Getting the word out is so important. I’m 2weeks in to the diet ...the problem with this diet for many is constipation. I feel better than I have in many years.
@@bridgetjones5695 - always salt your food with sea-salt, or salt with minerals (celtic, sea, pink himalayan etc). --- always make sure your gut acid is plentiful. i dont know how to do that but just make sure you eat sea-salt with every meal or take 6th of tspn once a day. Good to have= warm butter, ghee butter (buyteric-acid). Vit c(ascorbic-acid). Apple-cider vinegar, betaine from beets, pepsin to break down proteins. You can use all of them or even one, sea-salts the easiest one to get. Enzymes from fruits, veggys or raw foods in general, these things have high amounts of enzymes, especially pineapple, ginger and pappaya. if you cannot get them than try the supplements like papaya enzymes, pancreatin, bromelain, serrapeptase, etc. and eat them after or before a meal. if you're taking pharmaceuticals that cause constipation(no saliva production in mouth, throat, stomach, intestines etc), make sure to time your dose, take the enzymes or salt 10 minutes after your meds kick in, anytime before that your supplements are wasted in trying to get the saliva back on, you must take them after your meds kick in especially anti-depressants, anti-biotics and opiates. Once saliva production is up and running, your intestines will have the saliva flowing through again which makes digestion normal again. Digestive herbal teas(saliva production), are also great to use, you can use both or one, but the timing matters here. Good digestive teas, fennel, bay leaf, ginger, there are lots more. Have probiotics in the gut always, yogurt, kefir,or other fermented items are important in helping vitamins, minerals or nutrients absorb an pass. magnesium, no more than 1500 mgs a day. Have average amount of fiber in the diet. grapes and prunes are great as well cayenne+fennel/w Raw Honey, or just fennel if u have it.
@@bridgetjones5695 pharmaceuticals like painkillers, anti-depressants etc. shut the lever off to the saliva faucet. Then the ditch and water slides(intestines) start to drain, dry up or constipate and evaporate...this is what happens when u take something that constipates. To turn the faucet to saliva production back on you must wait until the meds fully kick in before you take the digestive-aid such as papaya chewables or other enzymes or digestive tea's. The faucet of water then turns back on and lathers up the intestines well and you will pass waste normally again. Long term use of Anti-depressants will cause alheimers too, so coconut (vco)is good for this. Long time use of painkillers and other pharmaceuticals will erode the liver and kidneys, so use dandelion and milk thistle sometimes or eat onions, apples, ginger, beets etc.
Oh wow, thank you for sharing this!! I HAVE BEEN MISERABLE for a week. But I've been suffering from trapped gas , I look pregnant! I belch a good bit, I just pass my gas & I can't hardly sleep, eat or much of anything when it gets really bad. No One should have to live like this! 😢
Amen.amen.amen. god bless you all. The doctor told me the i.b.s..thing is lifetime. I told him. It is unless you get to the root of the problem. Have a home style veggie drink for the day to take after we can eat anything we want. Also it should be cured in 4 months. No more i.b.s. but the doctors want to keep the patients returning for check ups. Its only business. Looking for money. Doctors dont have health issues. They wont tell what they eat to stay healthy. Us poor people cant afford organic foods. Food is geeting more expensive. Cant eat at our favorite home cooked resturant but once a month. And once a month at whataburger no.2 combo. It cost 18.00 dollars for us. My husband hasnt worked in 3 yrs. He is a painter. Nobody here in this is hireing. Contracted or hourly. My socisl security pays rent lights. Car payment ins. Laundry. Renters ins. Items we cant eat. Gas. Hair cuts is 40.00. We have 300.00 monthly to live on for groceries. We dont eat processed foods. Eat can goods. No meat til we eat out. Some potatoes and onions for beans. Oh . my husband dont believe in doctors. He has a doctor in his family. He told him the truth. Doctors is looking for repeat business. We are. 75 yrs. Old. And 3 yrs. He just got a peptic ulcer. So the only way he can get rid of it is surgery. He refuses. My problem is on going. I.b.s. unless a gut doctor can do whats right to heal our problems. They know about science. I believe in science. Oh bob and brad. You talk to fast. I cant understand half of what you say. The volume needs to turn up to. Thank you.
My daughter tried low-FODMAP diet and in ONE DAY she felt better! There are plenty of websites with recipes to make these meals. Not overly complex but does take some adjustment to avoiding onion, garlic, gluten, and lactose.
This was wonderful Mike and Bob! I have messed myself in the last few month and my intestines have just burst to swolen mess, gass and all the above mentioned...What did me in I really believe was onion, garlic, apples and too many damn beans...and they say beans are good for you! not for everyone..it is so individual. I would eat even raw onions and that was ouch.....so I did started fodmap 2 weeks ago...and you know what healed me....potatoes....every day...and rice...and I stoped all dairy, apples..intorduced new fruits...stopped dry fruits...oh so many changes..I am going to keep up and feel better and better...I really miss dairy .....but it is not worth it a mess...thank you for video...those lists of foods were so helpful Mike...cheers...Jana
I just started low FODMAP last week. Already feeling relief. Downloaded the Monash app as well. I struggle with figuring out how to construct full meals whilst still avoiding the FODMAP triggers, so going to work with a registered dietician starting next week. super motivated to NOT feel as awful as I was. Hate to say misery loves company but I am glad to know I'm not the only one who dreads being in an open office setting after 2pm every day (ha!)
Thanks for spreading the word about IBS and Low Fodmap. The Monash University website is invaluable. Using this diet has changed my life. I had so much bloat and pain I ended up in the hospital with a nasogastric tube and a blood clot in my vena cava from all the pressure on it. Doing better, thank goodness!
I am low fodmap, but the past couple of days, I messed up and am having a major flare of gas, bloating, and upset stomach, making me leave work. So, I found you which was informative even though I knew most of it. Both of your symptoms were like mine. I can totally relate and not feel like I am all alone with this. I will tune in to get more helpful tidbits, thank you!
Been doing low FODMAP for over 2 years. It’s amazing and has helped me out a lot. It’s funny how in the reintroduction of high FODMAP foods, we all are different and some will work while others don’t (onion messes me up while garlic doesn’t) but I highly recommend it
For me it's stuff like apples, pears, watermelon :(, avocado, lactose, wheat, peaches, celery, raw vegetables, blackberries, garlic, onion, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, beets I can eat 1/3 cup of, fructose in general, corn, cherries I can have 5 to 7 Blueberries are great! Low fodmap and eat them every morning. Soaking raw almonds over night helped me a ton! Now eat them everyday. If you like sauerkraut and it bothers you get purple cabbage sauerkraut it's low fodmap.
I was on antibiotics for two weeks due to a ruptured appendix. Then I had all the sibo, ibs, fodmap problems. I went on a keto plan and eliminated 95% of all my bloating problems and then reintroduced fodmaps. Just like you are saying, it works. I stay on keto 90% of the time and use intermittent fasting and time restricted eating, also. Carbs are for kids. I have never felt better. Thanks for your video.
Very good topic gentlemen~ as my husband & I are fond of reminding each other~ "Say it out loud"~ it's how we learn, grow more comfortable, increase our longevity & health in general. We also eat keto/carnivore & it is- by far - the most satisfying, easy to manage & healthful lifestyle for us. I also love to cook/bake & create different dishes, so this makes it more interesting w/a limited food group way of eating. Love it. =)
I just started Low FODMAP this past week. Oats. Oats. OATS! And there are a fair number of veggies and fruit and nuts you CAN eat - so constipation does not have to be a problem.
I recently had two mango ices and got so sick I was in bed for three days. Apparently, sorbitol is very bad for me. Now I know for sure I have this. It’s just gotten very bad lately. Now I’m on the Fodmap diet and I’m doing much better. I had been to doctors and they just kinda brush you off.
Hi Bob and Mike, I have irritable bowel syndrome and doing the entire FODMAP diet is according to my doctor (who is a specialist in the hospital) a bit outdated. It is a very strict diet and might lead to some people not eating enough nutrients and calories which can be dangerous. For example like Bob mentioned people need fiber and vitamins from fruits and vegetables. Also people should never try it on their own but always under the supervision of a specialist medical doctor. Much better is to see if certain specific foods cause bloating and pain. Maybe this App helps with this. In my case i experienced a lot of pain and bloating, no gass. It turned out that dairy products were problematic for me and since deleting those frome my diet and replacing them with plant based milks etc things are much better. Also skipping very fat fryed food helps and reducing stress. In general I eat a whole foods plantbased diet with lots of carbs and this makes me feel healthy. All the best to you and thanks for the video.
My big pet peeve is watching my boyfriend do this and he is struggling to get enough calories with the bullshit recommended portions… you can’t tell someone who is short and 100lbs vs someone who is very tall and 200lbs to eat the same portions -.____-.
Just read everything from my doctor and watched a few other videos. YOU educated me that my body is fermenting foods. Thank You! Good to know what I’m trying to fix🤣🥳🤗🙏
It’s funny you mention keto, because I was on a big weight loss program 10 years ago and I was trying to eat more fruits and vegetables, I was so bloated, gassy and I got terrible cystic acne and dry skin. I was eating low fat and avoiding meat (tried being vegan when that was trendy). Overheard a girl on the train talking with her friend about how she effortlessly lost weight on keto so I decided to give it a try… I had leaned down a lot at that point but I had a huge stomach like I was pregnant… and after a few days of keto my stomach was flat, no gas, I was finally pooping regularly, my skin became 100% clear, and wasn’t hungry or craving food all the time. Strict keto was a bit unsustainable so I only did it for a month, but switched to higher fat and protein diet, and lost interest in most fruits. Turns out I’m allergic to stone fruits anyways (I get hives). I thought I had a problem with dairy and eggs but I realized it was only when I had them in combination with something sugary, otherwise totally fine. I 100% cannot have any beans, or I’m farting bombs all day and night. My boyfriend is trying low fodmap and I’m seeing an interesting correlation with what I experienced, but he doesn’t believe me when I encourage him to pick fattier foods haha.
We eat quite a bit of garlic & some onion- definitely the onion powder- no problem. Our veg consists of broccoli/cauli/green beans/cabbage/kale~ about once or twice a week. No issues. We do tend to offset some of the sugar alcohols w/Pepto occasionally- if we go overboard on plant sweeteners. Berries are good, especially w/homemade whipped cream. You kind of have to find your own way, what works.
My story sounds a lot like Bob's. My symptoms started appearing a few months ago, first when I ate anything with gluten, but then I had to stop drinking coffee and eliminate almost all dairy too. I've been on the low FODMaP diet for a few weeks and it has helped a lot but I do have issues with some of the low FODMaP foods as well, so it's been trial and error. But it does give your gut time to heal and starve some of the bad gut bacteria. I'm now starting digestive enzymes with my meals and if that goes well I will add probiotics. Thanks for the video!
Yeah I became carnivore for the most part. Yeah, I sneak in carbs here and there, but it's just not worth it to have them regularly. If I do a fast for extended period and that gives my digestion a rest but I have accepted my situation and it's a relief not to be gassy anymore
Gojiman has some videos on GI issues, too. Might be helpful to some. A lot of people have SIBO and don't know it, and it goes untreated, and the problems continue
Gas, bloating, acid reflux, diarrhea... fodmod diet has been the only cure for me. You have to eliminate most processed foods, dairy and some fruits and vegetables, but it's worth it to feel normal, and have your body work normal again.
@@asiyaabdi7275 I go by the following guide/chart and also avoid eggs, and dairy as they also cause me upset. www.gastroconsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Low-FODMAP-Diet.pdf
You both helped me with my tmj issue now with this darn ibs ...thank you...I’ve been on the fodmap diet for a few days and am learning what my triggers are...I switched to lactose free milk and dairy and gluten free bread..and try to follow this diet..
I never knew my issues with bloating and discomfort came from hight FODMAP foods. My real deal breakers are lactose and onions/garlic. The others (like wheat) I can eat in small quantities.
I've been tasked with cooking Low GODMAP for my 83 yo Mom for 2 months, now. The hardest thing is covering for garlic, onions and celery. I just sourced some asa fœtida, which smells hideous, but putting a pinch of it is a dish makes up a little bit for lack of garlic. Celeriac (celery root) is great, if you can afford it.
I have the App and I’ve found recipes but my question is, when you see the recommendation on the amount, like lets say you are allowed 150ml of red wine, is that per day or per meal? Or lets say you can have 2tbsp of chia and 2 tbsp of coconut and 1 tbsp of pumpkin seeds, can you put those all together as a cereal or is that going to add up to too high FODMAPS? This part is very confusing to me and I’m hoping someone who’s been on this with success can help me get started. Thanks so much for this video!
😢Please have your your techie INCREASE the volume of the podcast. I can barely hear it and my hearing is near perfect. This low to near zero audio volume happens with a couple of programs but the BOB & BRAD volume is so awful. I like the program and use other devices but I would like to listen to it on my smartphone. Can you get the volume turned up? Thanks.
4. Constipation is characterized by the various symptoms which are different in different people, planet ayurveda’s herbal supplements can be really helpful in reducing the effects.
A big one that's really underdiagnosed is ileocecal valve dysfunction caused by such conditions such as: stress, IBS, fatty build up on the ileocecal valve, SIBO, absorption issues...
I was diagnosed with IBS and highly suspect I have SIBO. I see a gastroenterologist in a few days... so I will know more. Based on my own research and my symptoms, I have just started a FODMAP diet - I have heard that you can actually feel worse at first, from detoxing. Once I have the testing, lactoluse, etc. I can get to the bottom of how else to treat this because my symptoms are getting more bothersome.
@Billiondollar9 No, I thought I did. I had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy ( with cultures and biopsy) recently - all normal. But the IBS and possibly mild gallbladder issues are causing my symptoms.
I have IBS-D. I did an informal FODMap elimination diet to figure out triggers. I can eat most cooked veggies, including onions and garlic. Raw veg, most eggs, artificial sweeteners, wheat and other high fiber grains, are my main triggers. It can be life changing and it will never 100% go away. I have had success with the probiotic Saccromyoces Boulardi.
Hi Tracy, some low fodmap breakfasts include eggs with gluten free toast (with or without meat, like sausage or bacon), oatmeal with a few blueberries and a small serving of nuts (like 5), and banana, leftover dinner, breakfast taco/burrito (gluten free/corn tortilla), protein smoothie with nutmilk, bone broth protein powder, and low fodmap fruit... just for a few ideas
@@ConfluenceNutrition Thank you for your response. I have been eating no gluten oatmeal with blueberries most every day so guess I’m on the right track. It’s good to know of other things that are optional.
What worked for me was quitting smoking and intermiten fasting with light keto diet (I would still eat cereal and buckwheat in some degree, and even beer made for people with celiac deasease :).. felt good but I kinda felt low energy when working out.. but it is possible to live bloat free. Some of us just have extreme version of normal after-meal bloating and the feeling is awfull
My son has celiac. Hubby and I went keto, my son decided to give up grains and sugar. He lost 30 lbs of extra weight from his high carb, gluten free diet. He still has some issues, I may have his GI check for fodmaps.
@@TylerTron21 sir I think you are right I just tried to find your other comments after I got to know what sibo is, all of the symptoms compile up. I get fainted alot, I got anemia and this is for years but now it's getting worse and I have acid reflux aswell. My body gets cold. I feel restless and I have visited like 4 doctors now one gave me dexlansoprazole, other gave me serc for my vertigo and ringing in ear and motillium. Nothing worked till now. Some even suggested I'm depressed and have anxiety, I told them I'm used to giving presentation, yeah got butterfly effect but never got this much anxiety. They gave me ALP [sleeping pills] idk but nothing helped. Thanks alot I will get checked for this. Pls W8 on me I know this is alot I'm asking for but I have this for like 6 years now and I got into many fights cuz of this, my family thinks I'm just very scared person and unable to take hardships.
I've got IBS and IBD? no matter what I eat I end up with a squealers? At the moment the only thing I'm living on is baked potatoes I'm soup in bananas? I cut all my vegetables out a year ago it's lethal higher vegetables I end up sleeping on the toilet I suffer with bloatedness terrible constipation diarrhoea stomach cramps and knots I'm still finding out what I can eat and what I can't eat sometimes it's lethal so I try not to eat to be safe
My son has SIBO and next week we are starting an Elemental Diet for two weeks. Hopefully it will help. Sucks to see someone you love so much suffer in such a way.
@@JoyFay Thank You Sunny Bae. Through a lot of trial and error and testing. He's doing better. Can't say what we've done. But we went for a short vacation and he was able to eat out with no complaints. That really made him happy. He's also now riding a bike almost twice a day with me with lots of strength and stamina. Had to refinance but would sell everything and live on the street for my son to be happy and healthy. I'm just getting started and have lots of faith.
Most of the foods I like are a nono on this diet! UGH!!! Started about a year ago for me. Tried the FODMAP diet for a week and it helped, but started eating the stuff I like and bingo, bloating again!
Hi Susie, it's usually not ALL the FODMAP foods, it's important to do targeted reintroductions so you understand which categories of FODMAPs are the problem for you...I made a video about how to do it: ruclips.net/video/Kk8GTrCqKxw/видео.html
Since covid my stomach has become ruined especially since food high in fodmap or coffee ect. Its been 5 months in agony. Im a vegetarian too! I gonna start eating some meat t
Can’t explain this atall . Had problems with my stomach before covid and then Caught covid . Have been suffering with long covid for about 7 months but my stomach problems stopped . Now I’m getting better from the covid I’m getting the stomach issues again ?😡😡😐
Constipation is no fun! Foods that can help include eating a variety of colorful veggies, beans and lentils, blackstrap molasses, and eating healthy fats!
I just found this video and it looks like the diet could be useful. But I am reading the food lists and I want to know how the same food could be on the high and low lists? It’s completely confusing so far
FODMAP sensitivity is not an all or nothing project, it's more a question of quanitity and frequency. SO for example, if you eat a small enough serving, blueberries are low fodmap, but more than a certain amount, they become high fodmap. It's really helpful to work with someone, as there are some nuances to using the diet properly.
I think more people suffer from this than will admit to! Thank you for this helpful video!
It's estimated 10% of Americans!
being active and staying away from garlic, onions, etc.
having good probotics as well helps avoid bloating hence gassy.
aging is a good topic to explore.
thank you for this session, always
u r right whenever i eat onion, bun, cheeze or popcorn it got so much worse that i even faint. i have gone through so many checkups what should i do. i did typhoided, hpyroli as doc suggested but it came negative.....
Edit: after so many drug intakes dolgina 60 mg 10 tablets before breakfast and dinner, helped me relieve pain and podina syrup after every meal reduce acidity. Lastly itpod 150 mg and colief [mebeverine hcl] helped me with bloating and flatulence.
Whoever is having Gerd or problem like mine it is 100% stomach related and don't eat too much meat.
I finally got an intelligent doctor ☺
Okay, I’m about 10 hours into this diet and feel better already today. Thank you
Had to post again 3 days later because this video really, really took away my anxiety and all the pain I was having from ibs and never knew why. Feel soooo much better 3 days later...and relieved.
Into FODMAP for 5 days…and what a change!!! From feeling 7 months pregnant, almost no bloating! Superb!!! ❤

The faucet of water then turns back on and lathers up the intestines well and you will pass waste normally again. Long term use of Anti-depressants will cause alheimers too, so coconut (vco)is good for this. Long time use of painkillers and other pharmaceuticals will erode the liver and kidneys, so use dandelion and milk thistle sometimes or eat onions, apples, ginger, beets etc.
@@gunnernathan7023 thank you so much once again 😍
Oh wow, thank you for sharing this!! I HAVE BEEN MISERABLE for a week. But I've been suffering from trapped gas , I look pregnant! I belch a good bit, I just pass my gas & I can't hardly sleep, eat or much of anything when it gets really bad. No One should have to live like this! 😢
Omg me too! How are you doing now?
I don’t hear much about trapped gas but I have it too
Amen.amen.amen. god bless you all. The doctor told me the i.b.s..thing is lifetime. I told him. It is unless you get to the root of the problem. Have a home style veggie drink for the day to take after we can eat anything we want. Also it should be cured in 4 months. No more i.b.s. but the doctors want to keep the patients returning for check ups. Its only business. Looking for money. Doctors dont have health issues. They wont tell what they eat to stay healthy. Us poor people cant afford organic foods. Food is geeting more expensive. Cant eat at our favorite home cooked resturant but once a month. And once a month at whataburger no.2 combo. It cost 18.00 dollars for us. My husband hasnt worked in 3 yrs. He is a painter. Nobody here in this is hireing. Contracted or hourly. My socisl security pays rent lights. Car payment ins. Laundry. Renters ins. Items we cant eat. Gas. Hair cuts is 40.00. We have 300.00 monthly to live on for groceries. We dont eat processed foods. Eat can goods. No meat til we eat out. Some potatoes and onions for beans. Oh . my husband dont believe in doctors. He has a doctor in his family. He told him the truth. Doctors is looking for repeat business. We are. 75 yrs. Old. And 3 yrs. He just got a peptic ulcer. So the only way he can get rid of it is surgery. He refuses. My problem is on going. I.b.s. unless a gut doctor can do whats right to heal our problems. They know about science. I believe in science. Oh bob and brad. You talk to fast. I cant understand half of what you say. The volume needs to turn up to. Thank you.
My daughter tried low-FODMAP diet and in ONE DAY she felt better! There are plenty of websites with recipes to make these meals. Not overly complex but does take some adjustment to avoiding onion, garlic, gluten, and lactose.
This was wonderful Mike and Bob! I have messed myself in the last few month and my intestines have just burst to swolen mess, gass and all the above mentioned...What did me in I really believe was onion, garlic, apples and too many damn beans...and they say beans are good for you! not for everyone..it is so individual. I would eat even raw onions and that was ouch.....so I did started fodmap 2 weeks ago...and you know what healed me....potatoes....every day...and rice...and I stoped all dairy, apples..intorduced new fruits...stopped dry fruits...oh so many changes..I am going to keep up and feel better and better...I really miss dairy .....but it is not worth it a mess...thank you for video...those lists of foods were so helpful Mike...cheers...Jana
I just started low FODMAP last week. Already feeling relief. Downloaded the Monash app as well. I struggle with figuring out how to construct full meals whilst still avoiding the FODMAP triggers, so going to work with a registered dietician starting next week. super motivated to NOT feel as awful as I was. Hate to say misery loves company but I am glad to know I'm not the only one who dreads being in an open office setting after 2pm every day (ha!)
Thanks for spreading the word about IBS and Low Fodmap. The Monash University website is invaluable. Using this diet has changed my life. I had so much bloat and pain I ended up in the hospital with a nasogastric tube and a blood clot in my vena cava from all the pressure on it. Doing better, thank goodness!
I have mild diverticulitis and it's so important for me to keep my bowels cleaned out. This is EXTREMELY helpful...ty!
I am low fodmap, but the past couple of days, I messed up and am having a major flare of gas, bloating, and upset stomach, making me leave work. So, I found you which was informative even though I knew most of it. Both of your symptoms were like mine. I can totally relate and not feel like I am all alone with this. I will tune in to get more helpful tidbits, thank you!
Been doing low FODMAP for over 2 years. It’s amazing and has helped me out a lot. It’s funny how in the reintroduction of high FODMAP foods, we all are different and some will work while others don’t (onion messes me up while garlic doesn’t) but I highly recommend it
Thank you so much for this video. I've been suffering for decades and am finally ready to embrace this diet
For me it's stuff like apples, pears, watermelon :(, avocado, lactose, wheat, peaches, celery, raw vegetables, blackberries, garlic, onion, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, beets I can eat 1/3 cup of, fructose in general, corn, cherries I can have 5 to 7
Blueberries are great! Low fodmap and eat them every morning.
Soaking raw almonds over night helped me a ton! Now eat them everyday.
If you like sauerkraut and it bothers you get purple cabbage sauerkraut it's low fodmap.
I was on antibiotics for two weeks due to a ruptured appendix. Then I had all the sibo, ibs, fodmap problems. I went on a keto plan and eliminated 95% of all my bloating problems and then reintroduced fodmaps. Just like you are saying, it works. I stay on keto 90% of the time and use intermittent fasting and time restricted eating, also. Carbs are for kids. I have never felt better. Thanks for your video.
How did you find out you had Sibo ? Do you know the difference between Sibo and IBS?
Very good topic gentlemen~ as my husband & I are fond of reminding each other~ "Say it out loud"~ it's how we learn, grow more comfortable, increase our longevity & health in general. We also eat keto/carnivore & it is- by far - the most satisfying, easy to manage & healthful lifestyle for us. I also love to cook/bake & create different dishes, so this makes it more interesting w/a limited food group way of eating. Love it. =)
How are you guys always talking about exact things I’m currently dealing with?
Best explanation of this I’ve ever heard thank you!!! I been suffering with a balloon in my stomach/ liver abdomen a month it might be hormones too
I just started Low FODMAP this past week. Oats. Oats. OATS! And there are a fair number of veggies and fruit and nuts you CAN eat - so constipation does not have to be a problem.
This was so helpful and now I’m looking forward to starting my FODMAP program. Thanks 😊
Psyllium powder (for me 1 TB/day) has been very good for stablilizing fiber intake and elimination processes. A must actually.
I recently had two mango ices
and got so sick I was in bed for three days. Apparently, sorbitol is very bad for me. Now I know for sure I have this. It’s just gotten very bad lately. Now I’m on the Fodmap diet and I’m doing much better. I had been to doctors and they just kinda brush you off.
I suffer from this!! I’m so glad I watched today.
I have a medical condition that currently has me on the Low FODMAP diet and have found it to be pretty helpful.
Great podcast, Mike & Bob! Great information. Thanks so much!
Hi Bob and Mike, I have irritable bowel syndrome and doing the entire FODMAP diet is according to my doctor (who is a specialist in the hospital) a bit outdated. It is a very strict diet and might lead to some people not eating enough nutrients and calories which can be dangerous. For example like Bob mentioned people need fiber and vitamins from fruits and vegetables. Also people should never try it on their own but always under the supervision of a specialist medical doctor. Much better is to see if certain specific foods cause bloating and pain. Maybe this App helps with this. In my case i experienced a lot of pain and bloating, no gass. It turned out that dairy products were problematic for me and since deleting those frome my diet and replacing them with plant based milks etc things are much better. Also skipping very fat fryed food helps and reducing stress. In general I eat a whole foods plantbased diet with lots of carbs and this makes me feel healthy. All the best to you and thanks for the video.
My big pet peeve is watching my boyfriend do this and he is struggling to get enough calories with the bullshit recommended portions… you can’t tell someone who is short and 100lbs vs someone who is very tall and 200lbs to eat the same portions -.____-.
Just read everything from my doctor and watched a few other videos. YOU educated me that my body is fermenting foods. Thank You! Good to know what I’m trying to fix🤣🥳🤗🙏
It’s funny you mention keto, because I was on a big weight loss program 10 years ago and I was trying to eat more fruits and vegetables, I was so bloated, gassy and I got terrible cystic acne and dry skin. I was eating low fat and avoiding meat (tried being vegan when that was trendy). Overheard a girl on the train talking with her friend about how she effortlessly lost weight on keto so I decided to give it a try… I had leaned down a lot at that point but I had a huge stomach like I was pregnant… and after a few days of keto my stomach was flat, no gas, I was finally pooping regularly, my skin became 100% clear, and wasn’t hungry or craving food all the time. Strict keto was a bit unsustainable so I only did it for a month, but switched to higher fat and protein diet, and lost interest in most fruits. Turns out I’m allergic to stone fruits anyways (I get hives). I thought I had a problem with dairy and eggs but I realized it was only when I had them in combination with something sugary, otherwise totally fine. I 100% cannot have any beans, or I’m farting bombs all day and night. My boyfriend is trying low fodmap and I’m seeing an interesting correlation with what I experienced, but he doesn’t believe me when I encourage him to pick fattier foods haha.
I found the book by Jo Stepanakert, MSEd, “Low - FODMAP and Vegan WHAT TO EAT WHEN YOU CAN’T EAT ANYTHING,” extremely helpful. Best wishes.
This video is actually the most informative I have ever seen! I wish I had found it earlier.
It worked for me. Thanks for the video. I'm also self taught.
We eat quite a bit of garlic & some onion- definitely the onion powder- no problem. Our veg consists of broccoli/cauli/green beans/cabbage/kale~ about once or twice a week. No issues. We do tend to offset some of the sugar alcohols w/Pepto occasionally- if we go overboard on plant sweeteners. Berries are good, especially w/homemade whipped cream. You kind of have to find your own way, what works.
My story sounds a lot like Bob's. My symptoms started appearing a few months ago, first when I ate anything with gluten, but then I had to stop drinking coffee and eliminate almost all dairy too. I've been on the low FODMaP diet for a few weeks and it has helped a lot but I do have issues with some of the low FODMaP foods as well, so it's been trial and error. But it does give your gut time to heal and starve some of the bad gut bacteria. I'm now starting digestive enzymes with my meals and if that goes well I will add probiotics. Thanks for the video!
How do you feel now ?
Any changes observed.Feeling better now..?
This video is very helpful. I stopped eating apple and watermelons which has helped. I'm cutting out onions, broccoli and mangos from my diet next.
im gonna start this diet soon
Thank you. Feeling like I'm going to explode!. Have pelvic floor dysfunction which traps gas also. Farts can be a blessing!
Yeah I became carnivore for the most part. Yeah, I sneak in carbs here and there, but it's just not worth it to have them regularly. If I do a fast for extended period and that gives my digestion a rest but I have accepted my situation and it's a relief not to be gassy anymore
Gojiman has some videos on GI issues, too. Might be helpful to some. A lot of people have SIBO and don't know it, and it goes untreated, and the problems continue
Gas, bloating, acid reflux, diarrhea... fodmod diet has been the only cure for me. You have to eliminate most processed foods, dairy and some fruits and vegetables, but it's worth it to feel normal, and have your body work normal again.
I have the same problems like you so plz can you write down for me which fruit types you eat and helg på you I Will try also. Thanks
@@asiyaabdi7275 I go by the following guide/chart and also avoid eggs, and dairy as they also cause me upset. www.gastroconsa.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Low-FODMAP-Diet.pdf
@Brian. Thanks för your reply and i Will try it.
You both helped me with my tmj issue now with this darn ibs ...thank you...I’ve been on the fodmap diet for a few days and am learning what my triggers are...I switched to lactose free milk and dairy and gluten free bread..and try to follow this diet..
Thank you so much fellas. I appreciate you.
Monash University has a FODMAP app that is very helpful. Now I know what not to eat.
I never knew my issues with bloating and discomfort came from hight FODMAP foods. My real deal breakers are lactose and onions/garlic. The others (like wheat) I can eat in small quantities.
Foods you can still enjoy:
Bamboo shoots Bean sprouts Broccoli (3/4 cup) Cabbage, common and red (3/4 cup) Carrots Celery (less than 5cm stalk) Chick peas (1/4 cup max) Corn (1/2 cob max) Courgette / Zucchini (65g) Cucumber Eggplant (1 cup) Green beans Green pepper (1/2 cup) Kale Lettuce e.g. Butter, iceberg, rocket Parsnip Potato Pumpkin Red peppers Scallions / spring onions (green part) Squash Sweet potato (1/2 cup) Tomatoes (1 small) Turnip (1/2 turnip)

Thanks for sharing!
Such a privilege to get dietary advice from Canelo Alvarez. Jokes aside, amazing video, thanks!
Lol
I've been tasked with cooking Low GODMAP for my 83 yo Mom for 2 months, now. The hardest thing is covering for garlic, onions and celery.
I just sourced some asa fœtida, which smells hideous, but putting a pinch of it is a dish makes up a little bit for lack of garlic.
Celeriac (celery root) is great, if you can afford it.
Asa foetida?
Great video guys.
I have the App and I’ve found recipes but my question is, when you see the recommendation on the amount, like lets say you are allowed 150ml of red wine, is that per day or per meal? Or lets say you can have 2tbsp of chia and 2 tbsp of coconut and 1 tbsp of pumpkin seeds, can you put those all together as a cereal or is that going to add up to too high FODMAPS? This part is very confusing to me and I’m hoping someone who’s been on this with success can help me get started. Thanks so much for this video!
😢Please have your your techie INCREASE the volume of the podcast. I can barely hear it and my hearing is near perfect. This low to near zero audio volume happens with a couple of programs but the BOB & BRAD volume is so awful. I like the program and use other devices but I would like to listen to it on my smartphone. Can you get the volume turned up? Thanks.
4. Constipation is characterized by the various symptoms which are different in different people, planet ayurveda’s herbal supplements can be really helpful in reducing the effects.
Which plants and medicines in Ayurveda
A big one that's really underdiagnosed is ileocecal valve dysfunction caused by such conditions such as: stress, IBS, fatty build up on the ileocecal valve, SIBO, absorption issues...
I was diagnosed with IBS and highly suspect I have SIBO. I see a gastroenterologist in a few days... so I will know more. Based on my own research and my symptoms, I have just started a FODMAP diet - I have heard that you can actually feel worse at first, from detoxing. Once I have the testing, lactoluse, etc. I can get to the bottom of how else to treat this because my symptoms are getting more bothersome.
@Billiondollar9 No, I thought I did. I had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy ( with cultures and biopsy) recently - all normal. But the IBS and possibly mild gallbladder issues are causing my symptoms.
My only symptom is constipation, so FODMAP wouldn't be for me. Correct?
Fodmap has not helped me , I’m terrified and discouraged
I have IBS-D. I did an informal FODMap elimination diet to figure out triggers. I can eat most cooked veggies, including onions and garlic. Raw veg, most eggs, artificial sweeteners, wheat and other high fiber grains, are my main triggers. It can be life changing and it will never 100% go away. I have had success with the probiotic Saccromyoces Boulardi.
Great work
What would you suggest eating for breakfast?
Hi Tracy, some low fodmap breakfasts include eggs with gluten free toast (with or without meat, like sausage or bacon), oatmeal with a few blueberries and a small serving of nuts (like 5), and banana, leftover dinner, breakfast taco/burrito (gluten free/corn tortilla), protein smoothie with nutmilk, bone broth protein powder, and low fodmap fruit... just for a few ideas
@@ConfluenceNutrition Thank you for your response. I have been eating no gluten oatmeal with blueberries most every day so guess I’m on the right track. It’s good to know of other things that are optional.
@@tracy9397 Glad to help!
What worked for me was quitting smoking and intermiten fasting with light keto diet (I would still eat cereal and buckwheat in some degree, and even beer made for people with celiac deasease :).. felt good but I kinda felt low energy when working out.. but it is possible to live bloat free. Some of us just have extreme version of normal after-meal bloating and the feeling is awfull
i feel gas trapped
I'm very much surprised that grapes are in the low FODMAP list! :)
Thank you !!!
I will try this ! I have celiac. And I look 9 months pregnant 😢 so uncomfortable.
My son has celiac. Hubby and I went keto, my son decided to give up grains and sugar. He lost 30 lbs of extra weight from his high carb, gluten free diet. He still has some issues, I may have his GI check for fodmaps.
@@TylerTron21 sir I think you are right I just tried to find your other comments after I got to know what sibo is, all of the symptoms compile up. I get fainted alot, I got anemia and this is for years but now it's getting worse and I have acid reflux aswell. My body gets cold. I feel restless and I have visited like 4 doctors now one gave me dexlansoprazole, other gave me serc for my vertigo and ringing in ear and motillium. Nothing worked till now. Some even suggested I'm depressed and have anxiety, I told them I'm used to giving presentation, yeah got butterfly effect but never got this much anxiety. They gave me ALP [sleeping pills] idk but nothing helped. Thanks alot I will get checked for this. Pls W8 on me I know this is alot I'm asking for but I have this for like 6 years now and I got into many fights cuz of this, my family thinks I'm just very scared person and unable to take hardships.
@@assassingamer9088 have you been able to find relief or help?
I've got IBS and IBD? no matter what I eat I end up with a squealers? At the moment the only thing I'm living on is baked potatoes I'm soup in bananas? I cut all my vegetables out a year ago it's lethal higher vegetables I end up sleeping on the toilet I suffer with bloatedness terrible constipation diarrhoea stomach cramps and knots I'm still finding out what I can eat and what I can't eat sometimes it's lethal so I try not to eat to be safe
Do you think it’s insulin issue ???
Thankeyou somuch
Great and needed topic
My son has SIBO and next week we are starting an Elemental Diet for two weeks. Hopefully it will help. Sucks to see someone you love so much suffer in such a way.
How is he doing now? What were his symptoms if you don't mind me asking?
I’m sorry about your son. I’ve had this symptoms since I was a child too, I’m in my 30s now and it’s only gotten worse. I hope your son gets better.
@@JoyFay Thank You Sunny Bae. Through a lot of trial and error and testing. He's doing better. Can't say what we've done. But we went for a short vacation and he was able to eat out with no complaints. That really made him happy. He's also now riding a bike almost twice a day with me with lots of strength and stamina. Had to refinance but would sell everything and live on the street for my son to be happy and healthy. I'm just getting started and have lots of faith.
What did he cut out of his diet?
Very helpful, thank you!
can i ask i find that when i exercise my symptoms get better how about you guys
I no what hatred is..
Mine is server pain. ! Unable to stand up straight. Can not pass gas. Meds don't work. Go for week in bed in pain with heating pad.
Thanks so much very helpful!
Most of the foods I like are a nono on this diet! UGH!!! Started about a year ago for me. Tried the FODMAP diet for a week and it helped, but started eating the stuff I like and bingo, bloating again!
Hi Susie, it's usually not ALL the FODMAP foods, it's important to do targeted reintroductions so you understand which categories of FODMAPs are the problem for you...I made a video about how to do it: ruclips.net/video/Kk8GTrCqKxw/видео.html
I looked at the list, it’s quite overwhelming. How does one start
I came here for the comments 😀😀, but try and keep a minimum 5 hour gap when eating at work
Constipation ....Cashews worked for me, sometimes they work too good.
Since covid my stomach has become ruined especially since food high in fodmap or coffee ect. Its been 5 months in agony. Im a vegetarian too! I gonna start eating some meat t
Gass can help you, when you're riding your bicycle uphill 🤭 But when you work in a quiet office with other people... can be very embarrassing!! 😳
Where is the diet in description?
Thanks!
Thank you, stay well!
I just found out about this diet yesterday. Spooky 👁👁
Can’t explain this atall . Had problems with my stomach before covid and then Caught covid . Have been suffering with long covid for about 7 months but my stomach problems stopped . Now I’m getting better from the covid I’m getting the stomach issues again ?😡😡😐
What kind of stomach issues?
After actively searching for three 3 years my diagnosis was SEP 29, 2022.
Constipation is no fun! Foods that can help include eating a variety of colorful veggies, beans and lentils, blackstrap molasses, and eating healthy fats!
kids would have a blast if you could come to their birthday parties.
that guy with the hat on is a trip he always says yea real loud he funny
I just found this video and it looks like the diet could be useful. But I am reading the food lists and I want to know how the same food could be on the high and low lists? It’s completely confusing so far
FODMAP sensitivity is not an all or nothing project, it's more a question of quanitity and frequency. SO for example, if you eat a small enough serving, blueberries are low fodmap, but more than a certain amount, they become high fodmap. It's really helpful to work with someone, as there are some nuances to using the diet properly.
Thank u...I get iimmediate gurgling in my stomach after eating. That's not sibo? Thx
Thank you!!
