1. The patient is a 31-year-old female with a history of IBS and weight gain who experiences frequent GI discomfort.
2. She has been diagnosed with altered GI function likely due to carbohydrate intolerance based on her history and routine consumption of FODMAP foods.
3. The intervention plan is to educate the patient on the low-FODMAP diet, develop a 6-week elimination diet plan and goals for food tracking and meal preparation, then slowly reintroduce FODMAP foods while monitoring symptoms.

The patient has a long history of IBS and experiences frequent GI discomfort. Testing showed no celiac disease. The patient's diet is high in FODMAPs which may be exacerbating GI symptoms. A low-FODMAP diet is being recommended.
The patient's nutrition diagnosis is altered GI function related to possible dietary carbohydrate intolerance as evidenced by a history of IBS and daily abdominal symptoms. Their diet is high in FODMAPs.
The patient is being recommended to follow a low-FODMAP elimination diet for 6 weeks to help manage GI symptoms. They will then slowly reintroduce foods to identify triggers.

Estimated from 24 hour recall:
Reveals routine consumption of fermentable, Oligo, Di,
Mono-saccharides, and Polyols (FODMAPs)
Physical activity:
1 time per week for 1.5 hrs (volleyball)
GI symptoms:
Client complains of frequent GI discomfort including
bloating, wind, diarrhea, constipation and pain >10 days per month
Client indicates occasional GI symptom relief when
following a Gluten-free diet, but not always
2. Nutrition Diagnosis
Altered GI function related to possible dietary carbohydrate
intolerance as evidence by a +10-year history of IBS, negative tTG-IgA test/ negative celiac disease diagnosis; patient reports daily abdominal pain including wind, pain, constipation, diarrhea and bloating; diet reveals routine consumption of Fermentable, Oligo, Di, Mono-saccharides, and Polyols (FODMAPs).
3. Intervention
Provide client with educational materials related to the low-
FODMAP diet and elicit feelings, concerns, and ideas for adherence.
Collaborate to develop a plan regarding the suitable food
alternatives based on patient feedback during the 6-week elimination phase of the diet to ensure adherence and adequate RDI intakes.
Collaborate to develop a plan for reintroduction of individual
foods high in FODMAPs one by one and discuss the techniques used to assess client reported GI symptoms after 6-week period.
Before starting treatment, ask patients to rank the severity of
their GI symptoms and fecal consistency/number of stools per day on a standardized scale. Counseling Goals
1. Hold collaborative education counseling session with client to:
a. Elicit patient feelings, concerns and ideas for adherence
to the diet.
b. Explain the role of diet in IBS and FODMAP concept
c. Outline which foods high in FODMAPs / low in FODMAPs
d. Discuss the process and purpose of temporary
elimination diet
e. Describe difference between low FODMAP and gluten-
free diet
2. Provide patient with various recourses to help in the
understanding of FODMAP foods, meal planning tips, recipe modifications and support groups etc.
Client Goals: Be able to:
1. Properly identify foods and ingredients high in FODMAPs
2. (With help of RD) Put together 5 dinnertime meals that will
take 30 minutes or less to prepare and that are compliant with the low-FODMAPs dietary protocols
3. Keep a daily food journal to document food consumptions and
symptoms
3. Monitoring / Evaluation:
Visit 2: After 6 weeks assess the patients adherence to the
FODMAP diet based on food journal, and determine if the client was eating an adequate variety of foods to meet RDIs. Ask patient to repeat the standardized surveys regarding GI symptoms and fecal consistency / number of stools per day to assess a change in symptoms.
Collaborate with patients on ideas regarding how to properly re-
introduce FODMAPs back into diet in a controlled fashion by re- introducing small portions (2-3 ounces) of foods with increasing FODMAPS back into diet once every three days. The patient should continue keeping a food journal to document food consumption and symptoms.
