Just fyi, but here is some good information on food allergies and intolerences, which are very different.
http://www.niaid.nih.gov/factsheets/food.htm
However, IBS is not caused by foods. You can have food intolerences and an allergy, along with IBS, but foods do not cause IBS, only trigger it.
I asked one of the worlds leading experts in IBS and he wrote this for me.
Functional GI Disorders Coordinating Committee
Douglas A. Drossman, MD
Chair
Chapel Hill, NC USA

I can explain this better also in regards to IBS now as well, because I have done a lot of research into this matter and I have had a lot of help from experts on it, just fyi.
