A few months ago, I was approached to write an article about the low Fodmap diet for the Free-From Heaven magazine. Well, the issue has just been published and is out in shops for sale now. I am excited that they used my copy basically word for word and didn't change anything, which means all the information is accurate. That's the cover on the left in the image and the first page of my article on the right. They have even included a couple of my recipes in their entirety. They have made a lovely job of the layout too so I am a happy chappy. Meatloaf Roulade I got the idea for this from www.thehealthyfoodie.com but used quite different ingredients to make it low Fodmap. I pre-prepared it and left it in the fridge so I had nothing to do come dinnertime except stick it in the oven and take it out. It is a one-dish meal because it has the protein, carbs and veges all in together. It looks a bit messy in the photo and it did spill potato out one side but the rest held up pretty … [Read more...] about An Article on the Low Fodmap Diet & Meatloaf Roulade
The Winners of the Free IBS Insider Club Membership
I had so many great entries for the free membership to the IBS Insider Club. The decision was too difficult for me to make since I had already had contact with several of you. So I chose an impartial judge and gave him a set of criteria for making the decision. It would be great if you could congratulate them in the comments. BUT, I feel bad for those who didn't win because you poured your hearts out. So, before I show you the winning entries, I would like to offer all the other contestants the chance to get into the club for the same price of $20 monthly as the founding members. They have done all the hard work of notifying me of the glitches and everything is working smoothly now. Early this coming week, the club will be officially open so this $20 offer won't ever happen again. Oh, and the $20 price won't go up no matter how big the club grows. So, could the winners and the other contestants please get in touch with me on lowfodmapcoach@gmail.com Meanwhile, … [Read more...] about The Winners of the Free IBS Insider Club Membership
4 Traits of Mental Strength plus Chicken & Rice Soup

The Transcript The 4 Traits of Mental Strength Required To Eliminate IBS Symptoms FAST Why is mental strength important Because I know many of the people I speak to every day feel beaten down by the symptoms of IBS and don’t know how to change their circumstances.

But what are the costs of remaining disempowered? What is your life like while you are in this frame of mind, living beaten down? That hopelessness, the humiliation and desperation, not to talk of the physical pain.

Dairy on the Low Fodmap Diet plus Pork Tonnato
The Video There is a lot of confusion around dairy on the low Fodmap diet and many think it needs to be completely cut out. I clarify this in my video. The Transcript Welcome. Every now and then I get someone criticize a recipe of mine because it has dairy in it. So I thought that today I would clear up once and for all this confusion so many people have where dairy on the low Fodmap diet is concerned. The low Fodmap diet is complicated – I know that well. But it is miraculous if you do it right and that’s not easy. Milk contains two substances which could potentially cause problems. The protein – casein or lactose – the sugar or carbohydrate which is the D in Fodmap – disaccharide. Those on the low Fodmap diet are concerned with the carbohydrates in food but just be aware that you could have an issue with the casein as well. The next thing I want to clarify is the difference between lactose intolerance and lactose malabsorption. If you are intolerant, then you should not have … [Read more...] about Dairy on the Low Fodmap Diet plus Pork Tonnato
How Long on the Elimination Stage plus Fennel, Walnut & Brie Tart
The Video I am often asked how long you should stay on the elimination stage of the Low Fodmap diet for irritable bowel syndrome. Many sites say 6-8 weeks but in most cases that is too long. It depends on how soon your symptoms disappear. Watch my video for more information. The Recipe I got creative tonight, and this tart is the result. I was pretty hot by the time it was cooked with a couple of new burns but the result was worth the effort. I used to eat a lot of fennel in Italy, both cooked and raw, and decided to use that as the vegetable for the tart. Then I added the brie because every tart needs cheese and walnuts for the crunch and the toasty flavour. I had fresh oregano growing by the window so threw in a small quantity of that - don't use too much or it will overpower the fennel flavour. I also had some coconut milk left over and used some in the custard mixture, but I could have added more and less of the lactose-free milk because the flavour wasn't that … [Read more...] about How Long on the Elimination Stage plus Fennel, Walnut & Brie Tart
