Struggling with bloating, unpredictable bowel movements, or food triggers? The IBS Nutrition Podcast is your go-to resource for understanding irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and finding lasting relief through science-backed IBS diets, elimination diets, and gut-friendly lifestyle strategies.
Whether you're dealing with abdominal pain, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or food sensitivities, we help you identify your IBS triggers—from high FODMAP foods and artificial sweeteners to dairy products, gluten, and fermentable carbohydrates.
Hosted by Jessie Wong, a FODMAP-certified registered dietitian, this podcast breaks down:
✔️ IBS diet tips – Learn about foods to avoid, the FODMAP diet, and soluble vs. insoluble fiber
✔️ Gut health science – How your digestive system, gut bacteria, and small intestine affect IBS
✔️ Symptom management – Strategies for bloating, IBS flares, bowel habits, and excessive gas
✔️ Elimination & reintroduction phases – Master the elimination diet and how to safely reintroduce foods
✔️ Lifestyle hacks – Improve your quality of life by managing stress, food anxiety, and IBS attacks
I know firsthand how frustrating IBS can be—I used to suffer from debilitating gut issues, painful bloating, and unpredictable bowel movements. Now, I help people with IBS reclaim their health by understanding their medical history, food sensitivities, and digestive health.
