My advice is to get a breadmaker! Although my recipes say add sugar, I've found that it's completely unneccessary. So if you're making your own bread it'll be easy to be sure that it's sugar free and made from good flour.

If you use wholemeal flour, that will increase the IF content of the bread so it won't be quite as IBS safe tho.

An alternative is to use the principles of the GI (glycaemic index) diet. Have limited amount of the refined carbs (eg. just have 1 sandwich of white bread) and have plenty of protein and veggies with that. The low GI protein and veggies will reduce the GI rating of the entire meal, making it safer for you.

If you can get it I highly recommend a book called "Antony Worral Thompson's GI diet".
