6 Foods Not to Eat
Dairy Products
Dairy products, such as ice cream, cheese, and milk can be a problem for people with IBS. Firstly, they contain a lot of fat, which would worsen diarrhea. That is why you should go for non-fat or low-fat dairy to reduce the risk. Another effect is that many people with IBS tend to be lactose intolerant, meaning that their body cannot digest lactose in dairy products. Diarrhea and bloating are typical symptoms. In this case, it is better to go for some common alternatives like soy cheese and rice milk. If you want to cut out these foods completely, then take calcium supplements instead. [7]
