Vegan IBS Dietitians

We are nutrition experts specializing in digestive issues and irritable bowel syndrome

Suffering from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can be very unpredictable and frustrating. While there is no cure for IBS, a FODMAP diet has been shown to be effective in controlling symptoms.

Using the “Low FODMAP Diet” methodology from Monash University, which developed this regimen, we will guide you in identifying suitable foods and those to avoid.

A vegan IBS diet is possible, but it varies for each person. There’s no universal plan. A FODMAP nutritionist can help you navigate your choices with the 3-step method below.
