The starches are converted to sugars. The ratio of fructose to glucose changes. The starches are primarily soluble fibers which is useful for managing IBS. I try to eat them while the starch content is high but the banana is not too firm As for the syrup and protein powder - I find any food containing artificial flavours to be a problem. The whole area of food chemicals and its effect on IBS has not been studied but there are hints that they can may play a role. The Monash group that developed the low FODMAP diet is actively studying this area. They are about to do a series of blogs on the topic Research update: Food components and IBS In summary I stay away from prepared things like syrups, protein supplements and even prepackaged foods particularly given that things like syrups and protein supplements so easy to make from basic ingredients that I know are 100% IBS safe for me - and they are much less expensive . -------------------- 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: Quick questions - Heather or Syl please help :)       #372360 - 08/09/15 05:20 PM Edit Reply Quote aaliya Reged: 07/03/15 Posts: 41 That's interesting...before my digestion problems/IBS, I used to make about 2 out of 3 of my meals with protein powder, and even my snacks were packaged foods that have been highly processed/contained chemicals/artificial sweeteners and flavors. Maybe that's what caused my IBS in the first place.. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
