7 Foods to Alleviate IBS Symptoms

Oats


Oats are a good source of soluble fiber, which can help regulate bowel movements and reduce diarrhea. They also contain resistant starch, which can help promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. Additionally, oats are low in FODMAPs (fermentable oligo-, di-, and monosaccharides and polyols), which are types of carbohydrates that can trigger IBS symptoms.
