Summary
This trial studies how diet can help symptoms of IBS-D. It looks at how a diet low in FODMAPs can reduce symptoms.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), specifically those who often have diarrhea. Participants must have normal blood and stool test results, no C diff infections or parasites, and a certain score on an IBS symptom severity scale.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effects of a Low FODMAP Diet (LFD) on patients with IBS. The LFD aims to reduce symptoms by limiting foods that are high in certain sugars which can be hard to digest and may cause gut discomfort.
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly stated, potential side effects of the Low FODMAP Diet may include changes in diet satisfaction, nutritional deficiencies if not properly managed, and possible alterations in gut microbiota.
