There is interest in doing a certification for FODMAP educated dietitians. I am working on a registry–but we need a more formal credentialing program to help patients find suitable dietitians–I agree!!

Love the idea–and hope to work on filming it soon. It’s truly a matter of time–filming requires time to find the right crew and get it set up…and unfortunately, I don’t have the bandwidth at this time. But, I will look into it for my next seminar!

How about filmning this seminar and making it available to those interested in learning more?
Thank you!

Not sure if this is the right place to leave some questions about SIBO, but the SIBO thread seems closed for comments. I just started rifaximin today for SIBO, and have been following the FODMAP diet for almost two years. I see that you recommend eating some high FODMAP foods during the treatment to encourage active bacteria for more eradication. Can you give me some guidelines on quantities of higher FODMAP foods to eat during this time? Also, after treatment it seems you suggest staying on the FODMAP diet for prevention, but can it be a little less restrictive? And I must say I am confused about reading that one shouldn’t do the diet for more than 4-6 weeks, but then seeing it’s recommended for prevention indefinitely. Could you expand on that? Finally, my insurance company denied paying for the rifaximin saying “medical studies show [rifaximin] may help treat a certain type of travelers’ diarrhea…. Records we received do not show that you have this illness. Records show you are being treated for too much bacteria in your bowel….” I’m going to appeal this decision, and was wondering if you have any clinical studies or literature I could cite that says rifaximin is effective against SIBO. Thanks so much! I always get so much out of your blog. Really enjoyed the reporting and pictures from Japan too.

I am a dietitian teaching the low FODMAP diet on daily basis, I also check your blog daily for any updates (for examle: I wasn’t aware of the oat limit–always learning something new!). I would also appreciate a webinar like Lisa mentioned; I live in WI and have limited CME funds for traveling. My employer would be more than willing to pay me to come into work on a Saturday and view your webinar though! All of the GI docs/Advanced practicioners I work with are on board with low FODMAP diet for tx of IBS!

Hi Lisa, I am working on the webinar idea. Won’t get it organized for this seminar–but hopefully soon!

I recently saw a RD (who was supposed to be up on LowFodmap diet). I feel knew more about the diet and SIBO than she did. It was a waste of $300… I am trying to re read Patsy’s book and work through the reintroduction of foods on my own – again… So, yes we really need more RD’s who are trained. Thanks for all you do and the help your site provides.
