IBS is extremly complex and no worries on questions.

Heather or someone can help you with specifics on the foods.

However "large portions" are not a good thing. The sizes of the meals and the fat content and calories are important.

This stresses the digestive system.

Smaller meals through out the day are better. Part of this is to keep the bowel slightly distended. Its part of how the bowel works.

Also Heather wrote this for me here and I have some food information on the page, until you can get Heather's book's.

http://www.ibshealth.com/ibsfoodsinfo.htm


On vegetables some are more of a trigger then others and the same goes for fruits. Fruits high in frutose can be a problem. Vegtables with a high acidty can be problematic for some people.

This is also some info on that.

http://www.aboutibs.org/Publications/chronicdiarrhea.html

That's a slight clue.

"Also she is better on the days that she has had no fruits or vegetables "

Because they can be triggers and these can be individual to the person.

"weight loss"

That is an issue, if its weight loss and she is still eating enough food as well as how fast and how much weight.

Or if she doesn't eat enough food, because foods=pain?

We also totally understand your concern as a mother. As some one who had this at a young age and with the help of others here we will try to help you out and this is important, there are things to do and try that will make her better. Not all of them will make total sense at first, but things can be done for sure. A big part of that is education and questions and all questions are no problem.
