Syl, you're obviously quite knowledgeable about the EFI diet. I do appreciate your responses, and I could use a little more guidance. You linked me to a page about how onions, garlic, citrus, and fructose are particularly troublesome for IBS. However, Heather recommends that we still eat these foods because they are nutritious, we just need to do so with a solid foundation of soluble fiber in our system. I get that.
My question is twofold: 1) If I follow Heather's recipes in the EFI cookbook, where she incorporates ingredients like honey, applesauce, garlic, and onions into recipes, can I assume it's safe to eat because she's designed the recipe around the principals of soluble fiber as a base? 2) Or is it possible that some of us should totally avoid certain foods (such as garlic) because we are more sensitive to them than others?
