red meat is number one, and dairy is number two. Over and over and over again...
Best,

I gave hub a special treat of beef and broccoli stir fry and he didn't poo for 2 days- unusual for him. He always knows what foods do what to his body (sometimes that is annoying) and even for him a non-IBSer for sure, beef is bad news to the gut. Remember the "Beef filled colon" episode of King of the Hill.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

Syl, I am going to stay out of this discussion really.
But you might be interested in this as well.
Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy
Unorthodox Techniques for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergy, Asthma and Immune Disorders
"Inappropriate use of Conventional Testing
Adverse consequences may also arise if conventional laboratory tests are used in inappropriate clinical situations, or where results are presented in a manner amenable to misinterpretation.
Food specific IgG, IgG4
Use: Diagnosis of food sensitivity / allergy.
Method: Antibodies to food are measured using standard laboratory techniques.
Evidence: Level II
Comment: IgG antibodies to food are commonly detectable in healthy adult patients and children, independent of the presence of absence of food-related symptoms. There is no credible evidence that measuring IgG antibodies is useful for diagnosing food allergy or intolerance, nor that IgG antibodies cause symptoms. In fact, IgG antibodies reflect exposure to allergen but not the presence of disease. The exception is that gliadin IgG antibodies are sometimes useful in monitoring adherence to a gluten-free diet patients with histologically confirmed coeliac disease. Otherwise, inappropriate use of food allergy testing (or misinterpretation of results) in patients with inhalant allergy, for example, may lead to inappropriate and unnecessary dietary restrictions, with particular nutritional implications in children. Despite studies showing the uselessness of this technique, it continues to be promoted in the community, even for diagnosing disorders for which no evidence of immune system involvement exists."

I understand fats and other reasons for diary to be a trigger.

Thanks. The two are unrelated. The paper I pointed you to does not discuss Ig diagnostic procedure -- it is simply used as a research tool

Rice milk is great. I have not tried the Almond milk because of nut allergies. Has anyone had Oat Milk. I have heard of this but have not seen it anywhere and wasn't sure how it tastes.
