Low-FODMAP, Low-Carb Diets May Beat Medical Treatment for IBS
Among patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a low-carbohydrate diet or a diet low in fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAP) plus traditional IBS dietary advice outperformed pharmacological treatment.
According to a new study, evidence was found that these dietary interventions were more efficacious at 4 weeks, suggesting their potential as first-line treatments.
“IBS is a disorder that may have different underlying causes, and it can manifest in different ways among patients. It is also likely that the most effective treatment option can differ in patients,” said lead author Sanna Nybacka, RD, PhD, a postdoctoral researcher in molecular and clinical medicine at the University of Gothenburg’s Sahlgrenska Academy, Gothenburg, Sweden.
“Up to 80% of patients with IBS report that their symptoms are exacerbated by dietary factors, and dietary modifications are considered a promising avenue for alleviating IBS symptoms,” she said. “However, as not all patients respond to dietary modifications, we need studies comparing the effectiveness of dietary vs pharmacological treatments in IBS to better understand which patients are more likely to benefit from which treatment.”
The study was published online in The Lancet Gastroenterology and Hepatology.
