This FODMAP diet is brutal, especially at Christmas time
My GP suggested food combining as a way of treating my IBS.
On his recommendation and advice, I bought the book 'The Harcombe Diet', ignored the first part and went straight to the eating plan. In less than 2 weeks I saw a massive improvement; even now, years on from that, with flare-ups I rarely get the severe pain of the early days and less frequent trips to the loo.

I think taking into account quality of life vs. Enjoyment of food
I’m gonna give up on this FODMAP diet.
I love food too much!
