I've been having terrible problems with my digestive system the past few months, though its never been great. I've had tests and now have been advised to follow the FODMAP elimination diet. The diet is to do with "short-chain carbohydrates that are poorly absorbed in the small intestine and ferment in the colon".

It's quite a restrictive diet for 6 weeks, then reintroduction for 6 weeks to see what type of foods trigger problems. I'm sceptical, but also desperate! I'll try to post recipes to help anyone else who needs to do the diet.
