Monash University FODMAP Diet is a research-backed program that helps you relieve the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is a condition that affects the nerves of the gut and causes a variety of symptoms, including frequent cramps, sudden pain, and gas.

The Monash University FODMAP Diet program is based on the fact that about 75% of people with IBS experiences symptom relief on a low FODMAP diet.

How does the Monash University FODMAP Diet help with IBS symptoms?

This program is based on the research that has found the FODMAPs in our diet are the main cause of IBS symptoms. When our gut becomes irritated, our body sends a message to alert the brain to respond with pain and gas. But, when we follow a low FODMAP diet, the message the body sends to the brain is that there is nothing to worry about. This results in the reduction of pain and gas.
