Many individuals with IBS have problems with avocado. I can only eat small amounts of avocado at a time. How much are you eating with a meal and what are you eating them with? -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Loose/Floating stools after avocados       #360043 - 07/30/10 07:41 AM Edit Reply Quote jason61 Reged: 04/12/07 Posts: 190 so its not necessarily a maldigestion/absorption problem? i ate half a medium size avocado yesterday Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Loose/Floating stools after avocados       #360044 - 07/30/10 08:58 AM Edit Reply Quote Syl Reged: 03/13/05 Posts: 5499 Loc: SK, CANADA It not uncommon for individuals with IBS not to be able to handle alot if any avocado. If you had a malabsorption problem generally speaking you would notice it with a number of foods not just one. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
