And so the low FODMAP diet isn't a diet as much as a diet therapy. voice-verified

So if you're healthy and you have no gastrointestinal disorders, it's not for you. voice-verified

Basically, the sugars in foods are probably good for most of us. voice-verified

We don't want to restrict them unless they're necessary, but... voice-verified

One in seven adults in Australia has IBS and sometimes they do need sort of an intervention, a diet intervention to figure out what's going on because these sugars are basically sometimes inflaming the gut or causing symptoms that are really unpleasant, things like abdominal pain, bloating. voice-verified

The correct term is altered bowel habits, but I think funny poos is probably the way to put it. voice-verified

Like just, it's just not very, it's not pleasant and, voice-verified

And so basically in 75% of people who try the diet, according to Jane Weir, it's effective. voice-verified

So basically it's a process where you are trying to identify which of the sugars your gut is sensitive to and eliminate them. voice-verified

And so the first step is a couple of weeks where you just eliminate all of the FODMAPs. voice-verified

And then the next step is a few weeks where you voice-verified

gradually reintroduce them to see which one might be triggering your symptoms and at what dose. voice-verified

And then the third step is that you kind of personalise it. voice-verified

But what's really important to bear in mind is that you should only go on it if you've got a medical diagnosis, which it sounds like Trudy does have, and you should be working with a dietician to go through these steps. voice-verified

And one of the things that Jane from Monash said is that they really don't want the diet to become the next diet. voice-verified

gluten-free trend. voice-verified

Like similarly with the gluten thing, some people really can't eat it. voice-verified

It's not good for them. voice-verified

But for most people, foods containing gluten are really nutritious. voice-verified

And similarly with the FODMAPs, for most people, they're probably good for your gut, but in a small subset of people, they're not good. voice-verified
