Controversies and reality of the FODMAP diet for patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

TL;DR: Safety concerns of the FODMAP diet have centered around its initial elimination leading to compromise of nutritional and psychological health, but careful patient assessment and management, preferably through a FOD MAP‐trained dietitian, will reduce the risk of such negative health outcomes.

Review article: implementation of a diet low in FODMAPs for patients with irritable bowel syndrome-directions for future research.

TL;DR: Despite the efficacy of a diet low in fermentable oligosaccharide, disaccharides, monosac charides, and polyols (FODMAP) for patients with irritable bowel syndrome, many questions remain unanswered with respect to its clinical implementation.

Implementation of the low FODMAP diet in functional gastrointestinal symptoms: A real-world experience

TL;DR: The low FODMAP (fermentable oligo‐, di‐, monosaccharides, and polyols) diet reduces functional gastrointestinal symptoms (FGID) when implemented by dietitian‐delivered education in clinical trials, but it is unknown how well the diet is followed in routine clinical care.

The gut microbiome as a predictor of low fermentable oligosaccharides disaccharides monosaccharides and polyols diet efficacy in functional bowel disorders

TL;DR: The gut microbiome holds promise as a predictor of low FODMAP diet efficacy, however, further investigation using standardized approaches to evaluate the microbiome while concomitantly assessing other potential predictors are needed to more rigorously evaluate this area.

A Diet Low in FODMAPs Reduces Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome

TL;DR: In a controlled, cross-over study of patients with IBS, a diet low in FODMAPs effectively reduced functional gastrointestinal symptoms and high-quality evidence supports its use as a first-line therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short-chain carbohydrates and functional gastrointestinal disorders.

TL;DR: There is now an accumulating body of evidence that supports the notion that FODMAPs trigger gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with functional bowel disorders, and that a diet low in FodMAPs offers considerable symptom relief in the majority of patients who use it.
Journal ArticleDOI

Food choice as a key management strategy for functional gastrointestinal symptoms.

TL;DR: Reducing the intake of FODMAPs (fermentable oligo-, di-, and mono-saccharides and polyols)—poorly absorbed short-chain carbohydrates that, by virtue of their small molecular size and rapid fermentability, will distend the intestinal lumen with liquid and gas—improves symptoms in the majority of patients.
