The IBS Dietitian
Kirsten Jackson aka ‘The IBS Dietitian’ is a UK consultant registered dietitian specialising in irritable bowel syndrome. Kirsten is fully trained low FODMAP dietitian and has incorporated this diet into her Take Control method that has helped 1000s of people with IBS.
Before becoming a low FODMAP dietitian, Kirsten suffered with IBS herself. After realising that the low FODMAP diet was only part of the answer, she developed the Take Control method which incorporates a more holistic approach to support IBS sufferers.

🙋♀️ Yes that is the advice I stand for.
✅ It I backed by science and excludes fads! Does anything surprise you?
– There are no food groups that need to be fully excluded for good gut health. Research shows variety is key and if you have an intolerance then you will have a tolerance level.
– Gluten is only an issue if you have Coeliac or a gluten allergy (very rare).
– Dairy is not an issue in IBS – only some people may have a lactose intolerance and not all dairy contains lactose.
– Fermented foods are not probiotics and have not been shown to help IBS in the same way a specifically backed strain.
– Dysbiosis doesn’t yet exist because we don’t know what a ‘normal’ or healthy microbiome looks like so how we can we say someone has an abnormal one?
– Medications have a place sometimes so why not use them when needed? Antidepressants and laxatives both can be useful.
– Western medicine = everything that has science backing. So if it’s not included then it has no evidence and no I won’t be telling people to follow unproven things.

🥳 So excited to share Laura’s success.
😩 Many people think that if they have suffered with IBS for a long time then there is no way to manage it going forward.
🙋♀️ But that is simply not the case. Whether you have had IBS for 6 months or 60 years 😅 you still have IBS and the same science applies. We just need to unpick your situation in a systematic way.

😩 I can not believe people are still being told that the low FODMAP diet is good for IBS treatment or the gut.
😩 It could be that your doctor just gave you a sheet to follow or told you to ‘google it.’ Or perhaps you have seen it online and not realized that the diet is only meant to be temporary.
‼️Because here is the issue – FODMAPs can be triggers for people with IBS. People sometimes don’t have any issues with them and certainly wouldn’t react to all of them. So you need to do the reintroduction process to find out what level of restriction is needed.
❤️The reason FODMAPs are so important for the gut is that they are prebiotics (aka food for the microbes). And cutting these all out means that your good microbes may start reducing in numbers. This has been shown to happen in the research 😩.
🥳 The good news is that you can use this diet in the way it was meant to be used – for 4-6 weeks to reduce symptoms which then allows for a clear reintroduction process that then identifies specifically what triggers you may have.
