Do you know what to eat with IBS attacks? 😳 

Hi Olivia,

IBS attacks (also known as IBS flare-ups) refer to periods when your IBS symptoms intensify. 

The severity and duration of attacks can vary between people. 

You may notice your attacks are triggered by certain lifestyle and dietary factors, for example, stress or alcohol. 

Therefore, your usual IBS diet will look different when you are experiencing an IBS attack. 

This is why we have rounded up foods to avoid when you have an IBS attack:

• All FODMAPs
• Caffeine
• High-fat foods
• Alcohol
• Spicy foods

So, what should you include within your diet with IBS attacks?

• Adequate fluid intake
• Regular meals
• High fibre, low FODMAP foods

🚨Please consult your doctor if your symptoms worsen or you experience new symptoms.

We have written an in-depth post on eating and IBS attacks, including 4 alternative strategies to reduce your symptoms, which you can read here.

🌾 Did you know that 1 in 100 people have coeliac disease and 70% are estimated to not have a proper diagnosis 😳.

🌾 Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disease, when someone with the condition eats even a single grain of wheat or other food containing gluten it can be triggered causing an inflammatory response.

➡️ If you have IBS then part of this diagnosis would have been ruling out Coeliac disease but I commonly find that people don't have the correct tests done. 

🙏🙏🙏 check out the details in this post and ensure you get the right diagnosis.
