it's interesting though, I do have a lot and lot of gas from these foods, but seems to me that they are 'meant to be' bloating, and I did have gas from them even pre-IBS. So makes me wonder whether they really should be avoided if they cause no pain/D/C. They are relatively good on the SF-IF proportions scale and I always (over)cook everything so it may be fine for me. (and they are healthy!!) I get bloated from bananas, but I still eat them. Bloating is something that one can perhaps never entirely be rid of unless I drink a litre of hot peppermint tea spread throughout the day

--------------------
now: stable through EFI+FODMAP dieting (no lactose/no fructose/some fructans and some polyols)

before: IBS-D(pseudo-diarrhoea), bloating, often unbearable pain esp from too much fat: Apr 2007- Dec 2010

FODMAPs: http://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/072710p30.shtml

[I've tried VSL#3 -> I could tolerate v good amounts of IF (even with less SF), it worked great (but overall I find it too expensive)]
