Has anyone followed this. Having taken wheat out of my diet to see what happened with good results I now have to add it back in to have some blood tests and then go on to the FODMAPs diet. It seems to be the least logical selection of good and bad foods (for those who need them not for everyone
)I have every come across. If you use this could you tell me where you start? 
I just took a quick look and the lists are huge, could you make a list of foods you eat on the not good side and cut them,then a list of foods you could eat on the good list and add them to your diet.
That's where I would start I don't envy you that job 
You are right and I am going to have to go one or two foods at a time tanith. Really, when I said it didn't seem logical I suppose it is that I wasn't brought up with such a grouping. I could learn more about carbohydrates for instance as I have a base to work on. I shall have to see myself coming from child's level with this I think
Anniebach you are safe unless you have any particular gut (isn't that a harsh word - or is it because mine seems not to be working properly )problems.
FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligo-Di-Monosaccharides and Polyols; they are fermentable, poorly absorbed short-chain carbs - but that doesn't make it any easier
I didn't know Annie. Perhaps you, like me, will learn more about this . At least, if your doctor gives you the list you will not look as blank as I did . You have to stay on it wholly for six weeks and then add things back in to see which, if any, are making a difference so it may be better after that.
Just bumping this in case anyone has more information
