Hi there! Welcome to my blog.
My name is Daniela Galea. I am a UK-based registered dietitian working with individuals diagnosed with a range of clinical conditions including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). I am trained on the use of the low FODMAP diet for IBS by Monash University.
I myself was diagnosed with IBS in 2013 and have been actively managing my symptoms since. I have had great results following the clinical proven low FODMAP diet develop by the Monash University.
I love cooking and baking and try to adapt my most loved recipes to suit my low FODMAP needs. My blog is dedicated to sharing low FODMAP recipes, my experience with IBS, sharing helpful tips and looking into the evidence behind different diets, foods, supplements and tests available!
Nothing brings me more happiness than when a patient comes back reporting an improvement in their symptoms and quality of life!
I hope you find the blog helpful and I wish you happy browsing.
Me vs IBS 
You mention Quakers Oat So Simple they have a new Cuppa version but in the ingredients it lists semi-skimmed milk powder would be on a no no on Low Fodmap diet.

Hi Thank you for your comment. I’m referring to the quakers oats so simple and not the cuppa porridge version. I shall make this clearer in the post.

I’m printing it out immediately and I’ve signed up to your blog! When you do an update next, can it show what the new additions are so that I can notice these too? Thanks so much!

The foodlist is really helpful because it contains a few ideas I hadn’t thought of.
I have also been impressed by the range in marks and spencers

Could you let me know if Barley malt extract is low fodmap
LikeLike
Barley malt extract should be safe on the low fodmap diet as it is usually used in small amounts. However it contains gluten and should be avoided if you have been diagnosed with coeliac disease.

Please can you let me know if runner beans are low fodmap. I am fine with French beans but am unsure about runner beans.

Hi Melissa, Yes runner beans are low FODMAP as well. Just limit your portion to about 12 beans. You may find the phone apps Fodmap by fm and the low fodmap Monash university app helpful. You can search for particular foods and the Fodmap by fm app also allows you to scan barcodes making shopping a bit easier.
