In this episode, I chat all things irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and the low FODMAP diet, with IBS expert, Chelsea McCallum.  

Chelsea is an online dietitian, based in Brisbane, Australia, who specialises in IBS and the low FODMAP diet.  

Chelsea and I talk about what IBS is and how Chelsea became interested in this area. We discuss how we diagnose IBS and easy nutrition strategies for IBS suffers. We also review lifestyle strategies, medications and supplements for IBS.  

We take you through the low FODMAP diet, what it is, why we use it for IBS and why we can’t stay on it long term.  

Finally, Chelsea and I chat about social eating and IBS, and Chelsea’s tips to improve quality of life for IBS suffers.
