Do you peel all that white fibrous stuff off and remove all the inner membrane of each individual sections? Or just peel the orange peel and eat away? I would be so excited if I could eat oranges.
My problem is I read one thing about the diet, but I fail to see if it applies to me. Like if Heather's book says citrus is difficult and should be avoided, I don't even try it because I don't want to risk making my already bad symptoms already worse.
I don't want to offend Heather, but how does the diet work when there are so many foods considered safe in her book (like bananas) but so many people cannot do them? Or SFS are suppose to be almost an absolute thing for IBS folks need to take, but so many cannot do them! So, what's the point of the diet when everyone is different? Some people need wheat bread to stay regular, but Heather says only french or sourdough are safe.
I really do not want to offend Heather,honestly. I know she is a Godsend to so many, and has dedicated her life to helping us IBS sufferers. But I am trying to understand this. Is the golden rule just to eat insoluble after soluble and the rest is trial and error?
Again, Heather is the best, but I am having a hard time understanding this all.
Thanks for listeng
