You have to be careful interpreting the information in that article. The dietary approach was designed to handle all function GI disorders not just IBS. The approach has to be tailored to handle individual GI disorders with the assistance of an doctor or dietitian. Adjustment of the fiber content in the diet is also left to the physician or dietitian to advise the patient. As it says in the results section of the abstract "However it [the diet] requires expert delivery by a dietitian trained in the diet." Fiber content is not discussed in the article. In the body of the article it says "If adherence was strict, attention may be needed to modify intake of resistant starch and insoluble and soluble fiber. Other dietary triggers such as food chemicals may need to be considered, as should potential factors such as caffeine, fat, meal size and regularity." Celery and corn would not likely be on the safe list for individuals with IBS, for sure not IBS-D. It is best to stick with Heather's SF list when it comes to selecting veggies and fruits for their fiber content.
