oh my god becky look at that crust have you ever eaten something and then regretted it the minute
after sometimes it's the things we love that hurt the most so here are the 10 most extreme bubble
gut foods that trigger ibs whoa smells like some vomit took a dump in here carbonated drinks just
hook it to my veins irritable bowel syndrome affects the large intestine and is accompanied
by an array of symptoms each more unpleasant than the last one of the most common ones is
bloating which can happen anytime you eat or drink something that triggers your ibs for the soda
lovers this one is going to hurt if you've ever noticed feeling bloated after drinking a soda or
any type of bubbly fizzy drink you might want to ditch this habit and start drinking water instead
while it might not cause ibs directly it will definitely flare up the symptoms and make
matters worse the carbonation puts you at risk for excessive gassiness which can irritate your ibs
and most likely make you feel like you have a bunch of pop rocks in your stomach not only
will it make the bloating even more intense but it will also make your overall health poorer
in the long run if you feel like water is too boring of an alternative for you then worry not
i believe this there are a lot of other things you can drink that will still give you that little pep
in your step tea is probably your best bet unless you're willing to spend the rest of the day gassy
steer clear of anything carbonated you'll sank us later fatty and fried foods is is this chicken
hell no all right eating fried foods is never good no one has ever claimed that eating a
deep-fried anything was good for you or your body we know that but sometimes it's just so
good we can't help ourselves but people with ibs should try and minimize as much as possible their
relationship with fried and fatty foods in a lot of cases fat seems to be exacerbating ibs symptoms
mainly because it is a strong stimulus of colonic contractions i didn't know what i was putting into
my body fat also slows digestion which can lead to classic ibs symptoms like bloating but also cause
others like nausea acid reflux and stomach pain anything from pizza french fries fried chicken
and fatty meats will need to be re-thought long and hard before being consumed it's not necessary
to completely cut them from your diet but a little moderation and portion control should probably be
implemented instead of indulging in a greasy meal try to replace it with other types of fat
mono and polyunsaturated fat aka the good kind of fats these foods include olive oil and olives
eggs nuts seeds and avocado please avocados taste great on lots of things see avocado toast wheat
best thing since slices i know this one might not be such a surprise yet a lot of people with
ibs sometimes forget that they're not supposed to eat it wheat is in so many things we often
tend not to remember what has it and what doesn't breads breakfast cereal and basically any type of
pastries usually have wheat in them which makes finding sweets a little harder those with ibs
have often observed that after cutting gluten from their diet they experience some relief from the
undesirable side effects for those who might not know gluten is a group of proteins found
in wheat barley rye and triticale that can cause bloating pain and even worse symptoms if you have
a true allergy or intolerance i was dying earlier today and then i died while gluten has often been
the number one suspect recent studies have shown that some other compounds found in wheat and other
grains are also at fault like what you ask well the fructans which when broken down by intestinal
bacteria can produce ibs-like symptoms who did this to us so the culprit not always gluten if
you don't want to get rid of your precious bread it's totally understandable you can always try
to get rid of the refined grains first and see if the symptoms improve like by opting for 100 whole
grains or wheat free products you can still enjoy your morning toast or your midnight sandwich just
make sure you choose your slice wisely processed food it's comfort food that loves you back
most of us eat processed foods every day sometimes without even realizing it from potato chips to a
slice of cheese our diet is full of it processed food includes anything that's been cooked canned
frozen packaged or changed in nutritional composition sometimes food is processed to
retain its nutritional value and to make it last longer which can be categorized as
minimally processed however sometimes it's not processed for the best and can actually
have nefarious effects on you whether you have ibs or not did you just soil yourself
maybe these ultra processed foods no matter how delicious they might be are often high in fat and
contain a lot of additives and preservatives usually used to enhance the flavor color or
texture of the food all of which can irritate the gut even more and trigger ibs symptoms a diet made
up of processed foods can increase the frequency and the severity of symptoms so it's best to
avoid them all together if you're a fan of chicken nuggets cakes and donuts or a food that comes in a
bag or a box like cookies and crackers your best to avoid them and find some real nutritious food
to curb your appetite what do you think is coursing through my veins right now cheese
whiz dairy come on i'll treat you to a dairy queen this one is probably not that much of a surprise
since most people know how much of an undesirable effect dairy can have on some people most adults
are actually lactose intolerant so most people aren't total strangers to the feelings of ibs
following a glass of cold milk about 70 percent of adults worldwide do not produce enough lactase an
intestinal enzyme that helps break down the sugar in milk while ibs and lactose intolerance can
seem similar and have nearly identical symptoms occupied i'm going to be here all night they are
in fact different there are many reasons why dairy can be a problem for those suffering from ibs
first of all dairy is full of fat which can contribute to some stomach discomfort like gas
and bloating in some cases switching to non-fat dairy can do the trick and reduce the symptoms
other times it doesn't work and dairy has to be cut out entirely milk was a bad choice thankfully
yogurt doesn't typically fall into this category of harmful products thanks to the natural bacteria
probiotics it contains they can even help ease ibs symptoms instead of triggering them
if you don't want to anger your ibs maybe looking for lactose free options would be best you can
go with almond oat or even soy alternatives and replace butter with olive oil garlic and onions
guys we have a major problem here no garlic bread for a lot of people garlic is like the holy grail
of ingredients for any recipe some even claim that there can never be too much garlic as much as it
can be flavorful and versatile it might not be the best choice if you're trying to avoid the good old
after meal bloating sure it comes with a list of health benefits like reducing your blood
pressure or helping to combat things like the common cold but it's also filled with fructans
a polymer of fructose fructans are basically a type of carbohydrate that is not easily digested
and can trigger an array of symptoms in people with ibs i'm the party pooper sadly it's the same
with onions as they contain the same carbohydrate since they're both extremely flavorful and are
used in a lot of things it can be hard to replace them or even want to give them up at all if you're
not willing to say goodbye to the satisfying taste of your favorite vegetables then not all hope is
lost i came home with the smell of farts in my clothes there are a lot of clever alternatives
available so you can get all the flavors without all the paint for instance you can grab a garlic
or onion infused olive oil the next time you cook or even consider using chives instead of onions
or using ginger and fennel to add flavor which can both help your stomach to chill
the point is there are a ton of herbs and spices out there to try and replace the delicious and
comforting taste of garlic in a recipe beans and legumes perfect if you like don't eat meat it's a
well-known fact that beans and legumes are a great source of protein and fiber and in general can be
good for digestion for some people for other more sensitive people it can be an absolute nightmare
if you have ibs it might be best to avoid that second bowl of chili if you don't want to end
up bloated or stuck in the bathroom for the rest of the day it's all thanks to yet another type of
indigestible carbohydrate called oligosaccharides when the bacteria reach our large intestine and
start to break the stuff down it creates excess gas and bloating which is never very fun while it
can increase gas and bloat it can also increase bulk in the stool which leads to constipation
so sorry again for the delay i have diarrhea obviously the amount of this devilish carb varies
between bean varieties so if you really must have some you should stick to a small amount just to be
safe however baked beans chickpeas lentils and soy beans are the ones with the highest amount
there are some ways to minimize the negative effects of beans on people with ibs and really
with just about anybody for canned beans they need to be rinsed well before cooking for dried beans a
little 24-hour soak should do the trick but the absolute best way to not get bubble gut don't
go near beans jeez in a dinosaur dysphoric jerry get a grip sorry guys some vegetables you know eat
your green vegetables okay everybody knows that vegetables are supposed to be good for you the key
words here being supposed to in general vegetables are extremely healthy and pack a lot of nutrients
however some of those nutrient powerhouses have been proven to cause a lot of trouble to
people suffering from ibs cruciferous vegetables a mouthful i know aren't the best option for people
with sensitive stomachs these veggies include the very popular broccoli cauliflower brussels
sprouts cabbage asparagus and kale to name a few you look like you could use a salad film
your child sized kale salad will arrive at 7 37 p.m the worst part about this news is that these
vegetables are actually full of other healthy vitamins and fiber they're meant to be good for us
not cause any harm but all good things have their downside apparently if your ibs is specifically
sensitive you might have to forgo the roasted brussels sprouts at christmas this year but you
can still enjoy some non-gas-inducing vegetables to replace them spinach eggplant zucchini
cucumbers beets and even sweet potatoes are all fine choices oh gross i will not eat a darn beet
sugar alcohols this has powdered sugar on it and i ordered no sugar i really can't have too much
sugar in the morning who doesn't want to have fresh minty breath all day long right before
an important meeting or a very special dinner we've all taken a piece of gum some mints or even
mouthwash to refresh our breath however if you have ibs you might want to reconsider your options
in most products like these there is a noticeable amount of sugar alcohols like sorbitol mannitol
maltitol and xylitol not only do they sound like they can do a lot of damage but they actually can
these artificial sweeteners are part of a family of carbohydrates called polyols a sugar replacer
sugar alcohols have been popular alternatives to sugar for decades and are found in a lot of
everyday products like fruits and vegetables said who sugar they look and taste like sugar but have
fewer calories and fewer negative health effects but the only problem is they are resistant to
digestion meaning they can often lead to bloating and other types of discomfort for people with ibs
actually it's best to avoid sugar alcohols and other artificial sweeteners no matter if you
have ibs or not the best option go with a little natural sweetener instead it might take a little
while to get used to the taste at first but once you get there you'll see just how much
more beneficial it is for you and your stomach it tastes like a foot caffeine a damn fine cup
of coffee i've had i can't tell you how many cups of coffee in my life and this this is one of the
best if you're one of those people who needs at least one cup of coffee in the morning before
you can get anything done don't worry you're not alone coffee in the morning is practically
a religious ritual for almost everybody and people aren't exactly ready to give it up yet
and that's totally fine unless you have ibs then things might be a little different for you oh
dear that was a mistake as you all know coffee and caffeine in general is what we take when we're in
need of a stimulant and need to get moving however if you live with ibs it might make things move
a little faster than you're comfortable with caffeine will speed up the bowel activity for
just about anyone but will be even worse for those with ibs the major symptoms will worsen especially
if you've had more than one cup the thing is it's not just coffee it's also caffeinated tea
soda energy drinks and chocolate that's a lot of things to say goodbye to but as it turns out
you usually don't have to mourn these for very long as they can be gradually added back slowly
and in moderation so most of the time a couple of weeks off the stuff and some very controlled
portions will be enough to allow you to get your daily oat milk latte back anybody for some coffee
