Thank you so much for asking this question. I'm a non-celiac gluten-sensitive person (I had all the medical tests) with decades of IBS. Eating gluten free has helped, but has not eliminated IBS. Many gluten-free baked items use brown rice flour. For example, I noticed that I often did okay eating half an Udi's Plain bagel, but sometimes it brought on an episode; sometimes I could get by eating more than half, but sometimes not. I chalked it up to other factors if I reacted, but now am revisiting the question of using products based on brown rice or brown rice flour. This includes my beloved rice cakes -- virtually all of which use brown rice! Many gluten-free products use other irritating ingredients as well. So I'm going to readjust my diet -- again!! -- especially as I'm going through a stressful life event, and see if it helps. (I'm also doing meditation, tai chi, and CBT, so it's not just a dietary effort. But still having increased IBS-D at the moment.)
