It can be difficult to do incorporate the two diets. For example, low fodmap tells us that only real mayonaise is allowed and full fat butter. But the EFI diet tells us that we should go with the low fat or fat free versions. The EFI diet says winter squash (butternut, pumpkin) or sweet potato and beets and turnips are good SF sources, but the fodmap diet limits them to tiny amounts, not safe enough to be good SF bases. I could go on. I want to incorporate the two, but I am currently overwhelmed and confused as to how to do that. Plus, the email I posted from the journal does not fully support the fodmap. I just want to eat so I don't feel pain...not sure how to incorporate the two without adding so much more anxiety. I'm reading all the ingredients of my current "safe" EFI foods and finding nonsafe fodmap ingredients, such as molasses And having to throw out my current peanut butter because it contains some unsafe fodmap ingredient.
