Amy, I hope you have a dietitian to help guide you! I don’t believe apple cider vinegar would be a FODMAP in a normal serving size…though I have not seen any data on it specifically from Monash University. I would avoid the unfiltered apple cider vinegar though. Psyllium husk can cause gas–in some people–but overall is a good fiber source for many with IBS. Work with a knowledgeable health professional to help you!

I have been suffering from IBS-C and SIBO for some time and am trying to heal my gut through a combination of diet and supplements. I have been advised to avoid FODMAPs, but there is conflicting information everywhere. For example, many sources say apple cider vinegar can help, and others say it is a FODMAP and should be avoided entirely. I’ve also read many accounts of people using garlic as an antimicrobial to help SIBO, but garlic is high on the do not consume list of FODMAP containing foods. Also, since I have IBS-C, I use psyllium husk fiber to get things moving, but is this one of the fiber types that should be avoided? Thanks for your guidance!

Work with a dietitian to ensure your diet is adequate and you maintain or gain weight!! You probably should not go on full elimination diet give you weight.

Ron, I recommended filtered apple cider vinegar.

Also I have to take Calcium but I see that my Calcium Citrate has additives like polyethylene glycol and polyvinyl alcohol. Also I am only 102 lbs, so am worried about loosing more weight during the illumination process.

Have many questions, but learning some answers on your blog. Thanks. I live in a rural area and don’t have the advantage of finding a dietician with knowledge on this diet. It is confusing, because not sure on some of the foods yet. Seems one list on one site says ok to eat something and then another list on another site, says not?? Hope to get more info as time goes along. Just want to do it right, so I am not wasting time and money buying groceries that are not appropriate.

David, polenta is okay. Corn varies depending on the product. Corn on the cob–has sorbitol and oligosaccharides–GOS. But corn flour and polenta seem okay. I would think grits would be okay. It is more starchy than sweet.
