Digestive Distress - will Whole30 help?

[MSPRunner2012]

Hi everyone - I've been suffering from really bad bloating/gas/inconsistent BMs for years now. I've seen several doctors, done elimination diets (removing 1 group at a time), all without results. The general diagnosis is "IBS" with no resolution.

Has anyone here had similar issues and found Whole30 to help?

I'm kind of desperate....

Hi MSPRunner,

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles! One of the conditions with the most reported improvements is IBS. This is definitely a great place to start! At first, I would advise you to take it easy on (or avoid) nuts, make sure your veggies are well cooked (the fiber in raw veg can be irritating to a sore gut), and make sure that all of your meals contain protein, veggies and fat.

I hope this helps! We're glad to have you here!
