IBS Diarrhea Diet – Foods to Eat & Avoid

Low-FODMAP Veggies

Many people with IBS diarrhea tend to avoid veggies as they think that eating these high-fiber foods would worsen their symptoms. Nevertheless, some types of veggies can be actually healthy for bacteria in your gut, thus improving IBS. Studies have shown that low-FODMAP greens would reduce the risk of causing bloating, gas, and diarrhea. You can increase their consumption gradually without worrying about these health issues. Some common options include bell peppers, bamboo shoots, carrots, broccoli, corn, celeriac, fennel, parsley, potato, squash, tomato, and more. It is better to eat them fully cooked instead of eating them raw. [3]
