Congrats on the new site which looks great. Looks like there’s lots of interesting things to explore, and I’m definitely considering several of the downloads!
Thanks Beth!! Great idea. Will need to trial this box first and see how it goes. 🙂

Congrats Kate!! So happy for you and me. I have just discovered your blog and now a website too! I will be going to a gastroenterologist the first week of November. I think I have IBS. I was diagnosed as a Type 2 diabetic in July of 2013. Have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hepatitis C and started having water diarrhea in August, 25 days out of 30, usually 2 1/2 to 3 hours after a meal. October 2, I discovered your website. Began following the FODMAP diet and what a blessing it has been. Started off using rice as my carb choice and have had diarrhea only twice since Oct.3rd. One day it was potato skins from my baked potato and another day I had tried to eat some “apple straws” and oh my–did not work, up all night. Tested negative for Celiac but will have to wait for IBS diagnosis.
Hi Kate,
If portion matters and yes it does for me:)
My question is do FODMAPs from different sources have a cumulative effect ?
Example-
30 grams walnuts are Low FODMAP.
But then throughout the day I have 22 grams of pecans, 1Tbl pine nuts and 2 Tbl of chia seeds.
All of those amounts are Low FODMAP.
But cumulatively do they become High FODMAP ?
Thank you !
We usually look at FODMAP intake as a at meal or snack limit vs. over the course of the day. Though I suppose for some it can add up–but in general–it’s at meal limit. I would allow nuts at every meal w/in their serving size limit.
Thanks Lauren!! Great to hear from you! I appreciate your kind feedback. The box was super fun to put together and create. It’s pretty great being a dietitian loving my job everyday. And…I know you know what I mean! I hope your private practice is booming! And you are having fun with it!
