Why You Need a Dietitian for IBS — Not Just a List of Foods to Avoid

IBS triggers are highly individual. What causes symptoms for one person may be fine for another. The low-FODMAP diet — the most evidence-backed dietary approach for IBS — is a structured elimination and reintroduction protocol that requires guidance to do correctly. A registered dietitian helps you identify your specific triggers, implement the low-FODMAP diet safely, and build a long-term eating pattern that minimizes symptoms without unnecessary restriction.
