Sensitive Foods in IBS

Sensitive Foods in IBS

There are several foods that are related to triggering IBS and the different symptoms that are related to it. Depending on how your body reacts, you may want to consider avoiding certain foods until you can find why your IBS is being caused. Following are some foods that you should avoid if your IBS is causing your colon and intestine to react.

The first types of foods to avoid in relation to IBS are those that may cause gas when you eat them. These will then irritate your intestine and colon and cause the syndrome to flare. One type of food that should be eliminated from this is different types of vegetables. Broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, onions and cauliflower all have certain substances in them that cause your stomach to react.

There are also a variety of other foods that you can try to avoid if your body is reacting with gas. Bananas have certain substances in them that will cause this reaction. If you are munching on nuts or raisins, it also

may cause your body to not sit right while digesting. Another type of food that you should avoid is certain types of beans as most of these will trigger your intestinal tract. Garlic and leeks should also be avoided if you are fighting the symptoms of IBS and don’t know why your body is reacting.

Trigger foods are also known to cause IBS. Unlike the other food sensitivities, these are more popular in providing problems with your digestive tract. Things like fats and alcohol will cause your body to not react properly. For some, meats are also harder for the body to digest, causing a larger problem. If any of these seem to irritate you, then they should be avoided and substituted with another type of meal.

Beyond this, are foods that some are considered sensitive to. Depending on your body, these will cause you to react with your IBS being more active. Lactose intolerance is one of the more popular problems with foods that cause your body to be more sensitive. Milk and dairy products are part of this and should be avoided until you target which trigger foods are causing problems. If you have to avoid dairy products, make sure that you supplement the calcium nutrients with other types of supplements. Some find that certain sugars will also cause reactions with IBS. Sugar substitutes are one of the more common problems that cause IBS to flare up. This is especially known with artificial sugars or with sorbitol, which is often used as a sugar substitute. Fructose, the sugars that are found in several fruit juices is another type of sugar that can cause your symptoms to be present. By avoiding these food sensitivities, you will be able to find whether this is where the problem is with causing the reactions in your body.

By knowing what possible food sensitivities you have, as well as knowing what to avoid, you will be able to minimize the pain and irritation that is being caused. Finding substitutes for certain foods through vitamins and supplements may help in eliminating IBS. By knowing what the foods are, as well as the types of reactions that they are known to cause, you will be able to find which foods you should avoid and which ones you can still enjoy. This is an easy way to begin to eliminate IBS.
