I noticed this Saturday. One slice of lite wheat bread makes me feel gassy if there's not enough in my stomach. So, you're not the only one.

It depends on what you mean by wheat bread. If you mean whole wheat bread, YEAH! I can't tolerate it at all. It's mostly insoluble fibre. If you mean white bread, you may be looking at a gluten intolerance (check out celiac.com).

Whole Wheat can be a problem for people who have Gluten probelms as well. She may need to look for Gluten Free Breads and see how it works for you.

a) whole wheat is a trigger for both celiac and IBS.. a nasty one!

b) many storebought breads have dairy or HFCS in them- please check the ingredients carefully as these are both IBS triggers. This is my personal biggest issue- I am allergic to dairy!

c) if you are celiac or gluten intollerant even an otherwise safe gluten including bread (wheat is one of the grains that includes gluten) will cause symptoms that mimic IBS.

...do you mean by "wheat" bread? ALL regular bread is made from wheat...you have to get special GF bread for it not to be.

ALl whole grains are very high in IF so can a problem. Personally, I can't touch wholewheat bread.

Gluten sensitivity is a different issue and if you're only talking about wholewheat bread (not white as well) then probably isn't the answer.
