Summary

This week, Sarah and Stacy revisit the science and examine the problem with a Low-FODMAP Diet. Sarah breaks down the science on what a FODMAP is, how they impact the gut microbiome, and it can cause the problem with a low-FODMAP diet. You can find the full show notes with links to the products and articles discussed on this episode here. Instead of a listener question this week, Dr. Sarah and Stacy tackle a trending topic in health-conscious communities. Sarah and Stacy last covered FODMAPs in detail in  Episode 238. The science on them has definitely evolved, so it's time to revisit what FODMAPs are and why there can be a problem with a low-FODMAP diet!

the skin you're in and being healthy inside and out.

And I'm Dr. Sarah Bountine of the Paleumum.com. I believe that scientific literacy is the key

to improving public health.

Welcome back to the whole view episode 457. We are revisiting a topic that we have discussed

0:37.2

previously way in a long, long time ago.

0:41.1

So many episodes ago, 238, where we talked about what is a FODMAP and why some people would

0:51.4

have weighed eating them. And I'm excited that, Sarah, you are revisiting an updating science.

0:57.9

This is kind of a theme of what we've got going on these days is looking at updated science

1:04.9

and talking about what we knew then, what we know now, and what we can learn from that

1:12.0

in order to live our best healthiest lives. So I'm excited.

1:18.6

Yeah, I really, there's something very satisfying to me about watching the evidence accumulate

1:27.6

to the point where a revisit is really important because the conclusions are a little bit different

1:34.0

now than what we concluded was like four years ago when we first covered this topic in depth.

1:40.8

And we can look at the science from the last couple years and go, oh, this really does

1:45.7

change our understanding of what FODMAP intolerance is and the long-term consequences of a low

1:52.8

FODMAP diet, not that we were ever endorsed long-term, low FODMAP diets for most people.

2:01.3

But the science has come in to really show that there could be some problems with following

2:06.3

a low FODMAP diet long-term. So we're going to kind of break it all down and really

2:10.4

look at FODMAP intolerance through this new lens of the gut microbiome so that we can

2:17.4

really understand what what alternatives we have to following a low FODMAP diet for symptom

management. And I'm super excited because this episode is sponsored by our favorite probiotic
