After suffering from IBS for over 10 years, I've been on the FODMAP diet now for over a year and a half and it's had a dramatically positive effect on my life. I want to share that with you. My aim is that at least one other person sees this video, tries this diet and that it has the same effect on them. In this video I walk through the diet in layman's terms, talk about substitutions you can use and give some tips on products that I've found in that last year some of which have been real hidden gems.
Remember that you should only really do this diet with the help of a trained dietician.

I am about to start the FODMAP diet and hope it works. Sick of being sick.
Good luck Tracy - hows it been going?

Get SIBO test it will show weather you have bacteria or archaea overgrowth.
Did the diet or anything else help you?
That test is fine, but more important than the test is symptoms! If you have the symptoms - you have SIBO!@@dustington1
Having waded through a dozen fodmap TH-cam channels now, and become disillusioned with the very idea that I could see the diet through, at last some sensible, straightforward information and advice. No food fadiness or vegan overtones, just blissful common sense. If you are still out there, 7 years on, thanks so much!
Thank you VERY VERY much for this helpful and supportive video! I've suffered for over 60 years with undiagnosed IBS type symptoms and I'm just now following the fodmap diet and it's making a difference already in the first few weeks. I would eat cardboard if I thought it would help, so the low FODMAP diet is a breeze. My thanks to science and to people like you who take the time to share your knowledge, experiences and very helpful suggestions. All the best.
Hi Balgran, thank you for these kind words. Best of luck with the diet :)
This is the best video on FODMAPs on TH-cam. Thanks for posting.
You can make garlic infused oil beceause fodmaps dissolves in water, not in oil or fat. So if you cut some garlic up in not too small pieces, fry them up in oil and then remove the garlic, the oil will not have any fodmaps in it. Thanx for the video :)
Great advice thanks Hege :)
I discovered your video on Stomach oracle omnibus - there's plenty more good videos there that will help out
Hege Skoghus how much oil and garlic do you use to make garlic infused olive oil?
Hege Skoghus there is plenty on line about how to make garlic infused oils, just make sure you take the garlic out don’t leave it in the oil.
Be very careful doing this as it can go off and make you very sick
I am in the U.S., so we don't have many of the brands that you showed- but we definitely have plenty of substitutes. I just want to thank you so so much for this. Yours is one of the only videos that just makes it simple and easy and fun! Bless you and thank you. Continued health to you!
Best video I have seen so far. Thanks so much!
Thank you SO much, it is all so much to take in at the beginning. I’m still finding my way and your info is very helpful.
Thank god I found this video!! I was giving minimal information and no support about FODMAPs from my doctor and was really struggling. This has really helped my kick start my journey! Yay.
Alastair, these are great practical examples given. Most videos I've watched don't show what foods to eat or not to eat, so I'm delighted to have found yours. Excellent, thank you! 🍽️
I love the way you made this video, giving direct examples. A lot of your viewers seem to really appreciate this, and I think my clients would too.
Thank you for making this video. Excellent references & links to great sources!! I will pass this on to anyone I know who is suffering. I began the LFM diet in April '19. The results were almost instant- in a good way! I was so surprised to be able to eat any veggies or fruits! Due to crc cancer treatment my gut stopped absorbing nutrients after 5 yrs NED. I was very strict with myself and did the elimination phase, testing and re-challenging is ongoing forever. It's so easy to get off track. I'm still working very hard on that. Yesterday ate at Subway. Been up since 1am doing all my emergency remedies (gut woke me up w/unspeakable suffering) so my day today is not a complete loss!
4 years ago when you uploaded this video I was watching it and now in 2021 January I am again here watching the same video.I really liked the way you crushed that garlic it's really so much mentally soothing.
Thank you so much for making this video. I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate it!
Cheers Jonathan :)
I started the Low FODMAP diet after being diagnosed with IBS more recently and it absolutely works for me, completely life changing. Excellent video. Thanks.
This is the best video I have seen so far on the topic: informative, funny and very useful. Thank you!
Thank you Marianna, that really is very kind of you :)
Thank you, thank you for making this accessible video. Grateful to people like yourself for sharing and I'm planning to give it a try soon! Happy belly to you!
Thanks Brandee :)
This is such a helpful video thank you for taking the time to share
Thank you so much the best video l have seen so far so helpful. I have just started fodmaps l am feeling so much better you have given new ideas
great video friend, I will save this to watch again and again and again
You are amazing! This video is going to help so many people, myself included. Stoked to hear your gut troubles have left you and your so healthy now. I'm honestly feelin more motivated to attempt this lifestyle than ever. Thankyou, Thankyou! :)
Hi Tiffini thank you so much - how are you getting on now?
Great info for a beginner like myself...you have really helped to get my head around it all as it’s a minefield of info out there. Hope I feel better soon.
Thanks for this really useful video. I've started on FODMAPs but you've made me realise how much further I need to go.
Stick with it Duncan - Im going to do a course on Udemy where I go into more detail if you're interested :)
Thank you for making this video, this has been one of the most helpful videos I have watched, I have recently been diagnosed with IBS and I just felt like I got no information but you have just helped loads and I love the tips and advice that you gave!
So glad it was of use - it was fun making it. If you want more info on it, I did a Udemy course which goes into much detail about the diet and my journey: www.udemy.com/low-fodmap-diet/
Omg this is so informative thank u !! I have given up a lot of foods because it’s just not worth hurting! I sure appreciate you being so through with this info !
My pleasure Sherry - good luck :)
This was so helpful!! I’ve been feeling great and only been on low fodmap for a week but I think getting rid of gluten and dairy has made a huge difference. Thanks for sharing your experience, it makes it feel so much more manageable!
Well done Carla, sticking with it long term is the real test - for me it was a no brainer in the end. Pain or happiness, I know which I'd rather have :)
seriously thank you so much for this video! It feels good to know that other people understand what I'm dealing with
Glad it resonated :)
@@AlastairBanks can you eat cornflakes and banana on this diet?
Can you eat cornflakes and banana on this diet ?
Thanks for the video! Currently on week 2 of the low fodmap diet & have had some better days, and some not so good. So it's nice to hear that it's worth carrying on and hopefully it'll help in the long run.
Stick with it Lizzie, it takes time :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to explain , caution, and recommend solutions to everyday foods. I have been suffering from weight loss tiredness, brain fog and a walking air balloon as the days progress. Medical scratch heads and prescribe for indigestion, which I haven’t suffered from ever,!
Now gathering TH-cam info which gives me hope that it is possible to feel better than I have been for too long now . Thank you for sharing, you have made my day to know there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Great video with REAL life experiences. Very helpful list of Dos and Don'ts along with alternatives. Thanks very much !!!
PLeasure Nathan :)
I would recommend getting an intolerance test. After suffering for over 2 years my doctor advised me of the Fodmap diet. I tried with let's say mixed results from the diet and medication. After reaching a low point I went for an food intolerance test and was told it was gluten I'm intolerant to. When discussing this with my doctor he explained that the allergy test they do wouldn't necessarily have picked it up as allergies and intolerance are different. Any ways. Since cutting out all gluten I feel so much better and suffer far less than I used to.
Hope this helps anyone who took the time to read. I wish you all the best.
Gluten is always one of the first foods I recommend removing, it's one of the most common problem foods AND it's a high FODMAP food!
Thank you! Feeling really hopeless because I keep messing up this diet. This has given me a burst of positivity to keep trying!!
I was like that for a fair few months - stick with it :)
I am restarting the fodmap diet. Found this video pretty informative. Thanks for the tips.
This is absolutely fabulous! I was so overwhelmd! before I saw this! I did not know where to even begin - this gave mke a start - I will watch it a few tines to get knowledge of this diet!
Thank you Kathleen, there is loads of good stuff online so try not to get too overwhelmed. I put some links in the description which should help too. Good luck :)
Thanks for the video! Needed this.
It’s great having someone down to earth like you 😇and not showing charts and stuff😱 just showing the bad foods 🤩 fantastic video 👍
Thanks Janet - tried to keep it down to earth
This has been a pleasure watching. Very helpful. 😊
Thank you Lynn, comments like this really make my day :)
Exactly the same story, reached the end of my patience with constantly feeling ill and the awful pains. Day four of FODMAP, we can do it everyone :)
How are you now? Did fodmap work for you?
@@aleksandrpetrov3938 ^
Brilliant video great way of explaining thankyou.
Finally, a video made by someone isn't an obnoxiously hyper blogger chick saying "like" half of the time. Well constructed explanation without regurgitating stereotypical blogger talking points perpetuated by the internet.
Haha thank you - I tried hard :)
Absolutely love your style of video, fun, informative... You have a great delivery even on a serious topic....Love it, not the IBS so much but you and your vid.....Thanks...will defo look into formal further. Keep up the great vids and the fun stuff.....Gotta have fun!!! X
Thanks Georgina - appreciate the kind comments :)
My doctor just told me to try this diet for ibs. This is very helpful. Thank you for this video!
Thank you for explaining it throughly! I am dealing with this pandemic as we all are, lost of insurance and a narrowing in between my small and large intestines. This will have to be something I will have to hit head on asap I get back to work and insurances starts.
I'm glad I found info with this fodmap diet so let's see how it works for me.....
Love this video! It was very helpful. Thank you Alastair :)
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed :)
Thank you so FREAKING MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been seaching for answers like these for almost 2 years now. I wont tell the story because we are all here for the same reasons Im sure but yea over a year 1/2 of doctors with creams + pills or telling me I had nothing... to finally find I had IBS by myself. There was a lot of stress in my life but I knew I had to change something I was doing wrong and this is finally it. I feel so wrong right now and thats everydays... im only 24 im trying my best at work & always feel tired.. didnt really know why but now I know exactly how to manage it. AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WHO YOU ARE!!! Im low on money but as soon as I get money this week Im starting a fresh & healthy life. Im so happy :)
Hey bud, this is so good to hear. In terms of money I don't think it needs to cost you lots to do this. I would invest in the app (to help you manage it) then print off some lists of food you can and can't eat for the fridge. Don't worry about buying expensive gluten free food. Just get good quality meat and veg (that you're allowed) and stick to that. Good luck :)
Just got diagnosed yesterday. Very helpful and reassuring. Cheers mate.
So glad it was of use - it was fun making it. If you want more info on it, I did a Udemy course which goes into much detail about the diet and my journey: www.udemy.com/low-fodmap-diet/
Just diagnosed w Diverticulitis. Best breakdown if information Ive seen yet. Cool. Thanks.
Great job my friend...confirmation I need to change diet lifestyle! You get 10+
Great video, thank you for sharing.
OMG thank you! Made it so clear and easy to understand!
I've been on the low FODMAP diet for about 6 years now and this would have to be the best explanation I have ever heard. I also can't do mushrooms. Have tried intros them into my diet a couple of times with terrible results. I'm from Australia and the info from the Monash University is incredible. But I must send a big thank you out to my gastroenterologist who told me about this diet. So thank you Dr David Curran 😃
Pardon the pun, but great digestible information
Ha ha love it - my pleasure :)
Omg, I am from Brazil and just discovered this diet... it is changing my life. Thanks a LOT for sharing this. It is not really disseminated here, and I am just SO HAPPY to have just discovered it with my doctor!
Hi Gabriela - I felt exactly the same here in the UK two years ago :) Did you see the Udemy course I've put together?
Do u have viking ancestry!!??
You are so funny! Love it. Thanks for all your help.
Thanks Lynn - appreciate it :)
Very Informative Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. Just discovered your video. Funny and informative. My special needs daughter ( young adult ) has IBS no help from doctors, just bought that book , putting her on the FODMAP diet.
Done some shopping for this, but your tips and ideas are really appreciated and many thanks.
Hi Soraya thank you for the comments. Check out the course on Udemy which goes a bit deeper too. Good luck with it all.
great video thanks for the tips!!
Hi Alastair, thank you so much for this fantastic video. Our son Andy who is 21 years old has been suffering for almost a year now and has recently discovered that his problem is IBS. The doctors he has seen so far have more or less told him that there is not much that can be done. Andy discovered your video on Wednesday and suddenly he is very upbeat about the whole thing. Hearing your story about how this diet changed your life has really given him hope. He already has your 'no foods' and 'yes foods' list up on his fridge. He is currently in a flatshare as a student at Nottingham University... and would you believe studying Food Sciences ! ... so who knows, this might even have an impact on his future professional activity !
I am French and my husband is English and we live in Bordeaux in France. We have started watching your other videos and we like them very much. The content, the style and the video editing are all fantastic. It is also inspiring to see how you created your own company and how you encourage other people to do the same through your genuine enthusiasm ! All the best Alastair, Cheers, Muriel and Gordon
Muriel, thats one of the nicest comments I've ever had so thank you so much. Doing videos can be a little lonely sometimes and you don't know who you are reaching unless they take the time to comment as you have. This one has really spurred me on to make more and come back from my short break even stronger. Thank you :)
Tell Andy that if he wants to ask me anything, I'm more than happy to help.

This was super helpful, I am just working this all out.
So glad it was of use Rebekka - it was fun making it. If you want more info on it, I did a Udemy course which goes into much detail about the diet and my journey: www.udemy.com/low-fodmap-diet/
Great tips and i willalso keep in mind now it may take months to see real results. Thank you 😊
Alistair...you are a star...I have suffered for ever....i have tried so many diets....low carb high fat worked really well for me. I came across this last night and ordered a book straight away as I am flying to Oz soon and am so anxious about the flight....hopefully I will be able to get this all sorted before I fly. Your video is so informative....I love your approach to it. Well Done. Kerry
Thanks Kerry - Im so glad you liked it. Good luck with the diet :)
Changed my life SO much! I thought I was going to die from the IBS experience. My doctor had never heard of it. Lol. My sister recommended it to me! So awesome! I love her! I have found that following the "rules" of food combining has helped me stick with it, to understand what and how to eat.
A vey helpful video. Thank you very much
Best and most useful video on the subject so far. Thank you for sharing it helped a lot! The only thing is your list of OK and NOT OK foods in your kitchen... I couldn't read them :(. Thank you anyway, hugs from Budapest
I'm not on the Fodmap diet but have heard about it and it all seemed to be very confusing but this little video of yours is great because it makes it easy to understand what you can eat instead of the Fodmap food. Thank you for making it.
Cheers Jonny, it took me quite a while to get my head around it but once you do then its really not too bad. Good luck with the diet bud.
Thank you for such an informative video!
My pleasure Stephanie :)
Thanks for this informative video. I am just about to start Fodmap 🌺
Great video for people just learning about FODMAP.
Thanks Harvey
I love everything a-bowel-t this video!!
Cheers Alistair, that was really helpful. Have been suffering IBS most of my adult life, and it's been getting worse, so am about to give the FODMAP diet a go.
Good luck William - Id love to know how you get on. Check out the course on Udemy for a bit more detail
Did it help you?
Hey man...great video! Very cool stuff.
Thanks dude
Thank you so much for this video!!!! ❤️😃
My pleasure
really very useful. Loved the crushed garlic!!
Cheers Peter I had fun making it ;)
Thanks for sharing! Learned alot!
Really glad - thanks for the comment :)
Fantastic video man!
I've been dealing with bad "IBS" issues for my whole life, but they've gotten to the point of being almost unbearable the past 2 years. Got a handful of testing done over this time and everything comes back negative, so my doctor is convinced it's all just from stress of school, anxiety, and just IBS.
I've been lactose intolerant most of my life. Going to try a gluten free diet starting in a few days and see what happens, in the case that it doesn't help me I have been looking into FODMAP as the next step I take. Tons of great information in this video. Glad you're doing so much better now!
Erik, thanks so much for the comment - it sounds like your story is very similar to mine. I cut out Gluten too but still found I was having a lot of trouble. The big changes for me have been Onion and Garlic alongside the lactose and gluten, I really recommend cutting them out too if you can. Good luck bud - let me know how you get on :)
No problem at all! And thanks for the advice! I will try to cut those out as well :)
omg! same thing--all my test are negative but i've been felt horrible. the amount of anxiety/stress i have is overbearing. However, recently, I've tried gluten free diet and a probiotic and I'm feeling better. Give it a try!
Dahlia try it you will notice a difference
Monash app will help
Excellent video
Saw a consultant today. He told me about FODMAPS. I then had a mini meltdown thinking about how to do this with a husband and 3 kids!! But now I have watched your video, I'm feeling a lot more optimistic 🙂. Have ordered the Sue Shepherd books and will hit the shops tomorrow. Many thanks for all the info. Suz
Paul - I'm so happy my video had that affect - that makes it really worthwhile. Good luck with the diet and keep it up!
Thanks for the video some great tips
Really great video bro! Many thanks from the states! I need that list on the fridge.
Go make it - today :)
B - Download the Monash University FODMAP Diet App, it has a list of everything you can and can’t eat, how much you can eat if each and why.
Really enjoyed this. Have recently been recommended this diet by my doctor after many years of digestive problems. Had never heard of it before...he had to write it down for me to research! Think I will order the book you recommended too. My last "ordinary" Sunday lunch today and I start tomorrow!
Hi Kay, great to hear. Really don't worry too much about what you'll lose. Immerse yourself in the substitutions and it doesn't have to be as bigger deal. Its not easy out and about but at home it really can be like for like in many cases.
great advice on what to shop for, thanks for tips will try hard to go on this diet , wish me luck...
Good luck :)
thank you so much for this video, one of the most informative i've found! very helpful (I've taken some notes hahaha)
Thank you so much - you should defo check out the Udemy course if you liked this video: bit.ly/lowfodmapyt
Thank you, great elaboration!🙏❤️🐆🌞🦅🤗🌟💞🇺🇸
Very helpful indeed! Thank you.
Thanks Alexandria :)
Great video. I was losing my way as I had moved and lost my information from the dietetics department. Just about to telephone them to resend it to me. Knew this information but started to try things I know I should not. Your video made me feel positive again. Keep going do more. By the way you can use chives in place of onions. I found that on another video. They do really work. I am going to try the spring onions the green part. Sometimes when I get fed up that's when I have something I should not but its not worth it.
Dude I love this video. I have a short attention span and I really watched this whole thing through, not skipping anything, even took some notes. This is really helpful, thank you so much-I can’t wait to try these products and get started with low FODMAP because the IBS thing has had such a negative impact on my health, just life in general. I’m a new subscriber so I’m not sure if you’ve done so already, but if you haven’t, could you make one of those “what I eat in a day videos”, or meal plans? If you’ve done this or something similar then just drop the link. Thank you for your time and this video!! 👋💌
Thank you so much! I'm planning on doing some new videos this year but do check out the Udemy course link in the description too as there is loads more useful info in that
Very informative thx . I've started to look up all my needs regarding gluten free n lactose free... mo money but I'll work around it, n I've made notes n will surely pu5 on my fridge for reminder. One of the best fodmap videos really
Thanks Bernadette, its doesnt need to cost a fortune. You dont have to buy all the free from stuff if you're careful
Thank you so much. Very helpful!!!
Pleasure Brenda :)
I am new to the FODMAP way of eating & found this video very helpful, Thank You
My pleasure so glad you liked it
Really helpful video, simple and reassuring. I'm so sad to give up garlic but your tip about infused oil was very helpful.
glad the tip helped :)
Super helpful. Thank you.
Brilliant video so glad you've cured yourself. My daughter has just been prescribed this diet by the NHS. They now specifically say it's not a completely "gluten-free and lactose-free diet and you should be fine with the normal much cheaper rice crispies, oatmeal, oat cakes, butter and cheeses.
Great video!
So glad it was of use - it was fun making it. If you want more info on it, I did a Udemy course which goes into much detail about the diet and my journey: www.udemy.com/low-fodmap-diet/
This is life saver for me❤
Thank you, I just figured out that I actually have ibs and need some sort of change, I can’t handle this pain anymore. I’m praying this diet can help.
Utterly brilliant video, not sure if you know but the university named in this prog now has an app, which is quite easy to follow. A tip I have is that I make my own stocks and freeze them in ice cube bags. Bagged a Sunday dinner chicken carcass off my brother in-law at the weekend.(much to everyone's amusement.) So nice to hear tips from someone who has been following the diet for sometime. Thanks for inviting us into your home you are inspirational. Thanks for posting.
So glad it was of use Daisy - it was fun making it. If you want more info on it, I did a Udemy course which goes into much detail about the diet and my journey: www.udemy.com/low-fodmap-diet/
Great video. I've been on the diet for a month. An entire month of no intestinal/bowel distress.
Don't miss onions or garlic at all. difficult when I'm out, though.
Hi Katherine, great to hear you're having success too - keep it up :)
Very helpful thanks!
Very informative. Thank you
Thank you so much! This was very informative!
Was told a good substitute for garlic is chives. For me the worst is coffee! 😊
