A dietary strategy called the Low FODMAP Diet was created especially to help people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and other functional gastrointestinal disorders manage their symptoms. Reducing the consumption of foods high in specific fermentable carbohydrates, or FODMAPs, is the main aim of this diet. Some people find it difficult to digest these carbs, which may result in symptoms including gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort. The letters FODMAP, which stand for Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols, indicate several classes of carbohydrates that the small intestine may be unable to properly absorb. Recognizing FODMAPs Grains including wheat, rye, onions, and legumes contain oligosaccharides. Dairy products such as yogurt, soft cheeses, and milk include disaccharides, of which lactose is the most frequent. Monosaccharides are mostly made up of excess fructose, which may be found in honey, high-fructose corn syrup, and a variety of fruits. There are polyols, also known as sugar alcohols, in some fruits, vegetables, and artificial sweetners. People who have sensitive guts may experience pain and changes in their bowel movements as a consequence of the intestines being more stretched due to inadequate absorption of these carbs.
