The doctors told me I had irritable bowel syndrome. And the only thing a noticed that actually works is to eat the least amount of fiber as possible. And to avoid everything that is “enriched” with fiber. I can eat some vegetables or legumes with almost no problem but I tend not to eat too much of those. This way I can live almost like I was before being diagnosed. Everywhere I read that eating fiber is good and I can’t find anyone else that shares my experience.

    I used to really struggle with insoluble fibres like wheat bran, but found that soluble fibres like in oats were much kinder to my system. Does soluble vs insoluble make a difference for you?
