I know that's the recommendation in the IBS diet book, but this is something I have noticed for myself, anyway (I DO have trouble with fruit). The fructose plus slow digestion/ elimination alway starts fermentation/ gas/ bloating.

The the "food combination" thing: not to combine foods that digest quickly like fruit with ones that take longer, like bread, meat, etc.

I find I can tolerate rice milk and white rice with fruits (both are quickly digested).

Just something to consider.

Another food combination I've avoided over the years: beans and wheat--they really interfere with each other. Beans and corn (as in corn tortillas)--good; beans and wheat (as in white flour tortillas)---bad, extra gassy.

I don't know if any of this holds true for anybody else, though--this was just my personal anecdotal experience.
