Introduction to IBS Nutritionist

IBS Nutritionist is designed to assist individuals who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or other gut-related issues by offering detailed, personalized nutrition guidance. Its primary function is to provide tailored advice on whether specific foods or dishes are suitable for IBS based on the FODMAP content and other relevant dietary factors. This is especially valuable in the context of low-FODMAP diets, a common dietary strategy to manage IBS symptoms. For example, if a user asks, 'Can I eat avocado?', IBS Nutritionist would provide details about its FODMAP content, potential irritants, and better alternatives, if necessary.
