Even following the diet "strictly" still allows for several of the trigger foods so that the body is used to them; e.g. eating 20% fat in meals helps the gut stay tolerant of fats and making sure to eat plenty of IF with meals makes that tolerable too. In fact the only foods that are completely forbidden are foods to which a person has a specific intolerance. Even Heather says having small amounts of chocolate, dairy products etc (or a bite or two of steak) is okay when stable. So the principles of making your gut tolerate things are a part of this diet IMO.

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
