    The document describes a 3-step diet for treating IBS using a low FODMAP approach. The diet was developed by Monash University researchers and limits foods high in FODMAPs to reduce IBS symptoms. It involves initially following a low FODMAP diet, then reintroducing FODMAPs to identify triggers, and finally personalizing the diet for long-term symptom management.

    like bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhoea and pain. These foods are high in a group
    of sugars called FODMAPs:

    Fermentable Oligosaccharides Disaccharides Monosaccharides And Polyols
