I'm still fairly new here, but the only references to potatoes I've seen are about how they are a good, soluble fiber. In my experience, potatoes have been a big no-no for IBS because they are in the nightshade family of vegetables, which includes peppers, tomatoes, etc. The first time I was diagnosed with IBS, the first thing the doctor told me to stay away from was nightshade. And through experience I've found that these foods do trigger IBS episodes.
Does anyone have any more insight into this? Is there, perhaps, a way to prepare potatoes that minimizes the negative effects so I can still get the soluble fiber benefit from them?
