I do believe food intolerance can be minimized when you address the underlying health issue–for instance, by treating small intestinal bacterial overgrowth or managing constipation with effective therapies such as pelvic floor physical therapy. Many of my clients have been able to expand their diet! The underlying cause of food intolerance varies person to person–a great GI doctor and dietitian –that work well together (which is awesome when this happens!) –can be the best asset in addressing the underlying GI issue and then effectively expanding the diet!

Did you do some gut healing in order to tolerate these things again? I miss eggs, cauliflower, Brussels, garlic 🙁 people tell me I have to heal my gut and then I’ll be able to tolerate these things again

Ah…you found one of my FODMAP-unfriendly recipes that I posted a while ago…I am fortunate to tolerate broccoli and garlic (in reasonable amounts) but yes, this recipe would NOT be suitable on the low FODMAP diet. When I first started my blog, I posted a mix of recipes that I cooked up for my family. But, when I found that 98% of my followers wanted low FODMAP recipes, I moved my blog more in that direction.
