Foods to Avoid with IBS 🚫🍞🍬

When you’re living with IBS, what’s on your plate can make a big difference in how you feel. While everyone’s triggers are unique, some foods are more likely to spark symptoms like bloating, cramping, or urgent trips to the bathroom.

Here are some common culprits to watch out for:
❌ High-FODMAP fruits – apples, pears, watermelon
❌ Certain vegetables – onions, cauliflower, cabbage
❌ Dairy products – milk, soft cheeses, ice cream
❌ Fatty or fried foods – greasy takeout, fast food
❌ Processed snacks & sweets – candy, cookies, chips
❌ Carbonated drinks – soda, sparkling water
❌ Caffeine & alcohol – coffee, beer, wine

💡 Tip: Keep a food diary to track your own triggers—your gut will thank you!
