I've been making my own bread every day for awhile now.
**side note - I use this book Artisan Bread In Five Minutes A Day The Master recipe only has white flour, yeast, salt, and water. And it is SO fantastic. I love having safe fresh bread every day. I set it out to rise before I exercise and when I'm done I put it in the oven. Shower and when I'm out it's done then or shortly after.
Anyway - my question...
Do you think it would be safe to had some whole wheat flour?
The recipe calls for 6.5 cups of flour. There is a variation that says to use 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 5.5 cups of white flour.
Do you think I would still be safe with that?
I am worried about how much IF food I get in and I would feel better if I knew I was getting a little in such a safe way.
I do have some IF at every lunch and dinner meal. I just want to make sure it's enough.
Thanks for any input!

If you were IBS-C a little wheat in a lot of SF might be ok, but chances are with D you want to get your IF from another source other than WW. You might want to try a little WW flour and increase up to 1c to see if it is ok for you- if you already have WW flour on hand.
I make bread with organic bread flour that seems a little more nutritious than all purpose flour.
Peasant bread
1.5c water
3.5c bread flour
1T sugar
2.5t yeast
1t salt
2# loaf- French dark crust cycle

"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!
