WIALD: Atypical Food Allergies in IBS; A review of the literature.

This is a segment of WIALD on the One thing Podcast. WIALD stands for "What I am Learning Daily". This is the attempt to take you along my learning journey. 

In this episode I review the clinical study “. Many Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome Have Atypical Food Allergies Not Associated With Immunoglobulin E. (Fritscher-Ravens et al., 2019).  

This is a very important study that looks at foods that can cause inflammation in IBS. Typically, IBS patients are given the Low Fodmap Diet which is a great starting point to control IBS symptoms ,however, there have long been assumed connections between specific foods triggering IBS. 


This study used an imaging technique called Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) that imaged the small intestine upon introduction of Wheat, Dairy, Soy, and Yeast in confirmed IBS patients compared to controls.  

Listen to my takeaways and what I learned. See below for full paper link. Fritscher-Ravens, A., Pflaum, T., Mösinger, M., Ruchay, Z., Röcken, C., Milla, P. J., … Schuppan, D. (2019).
