SOME Foods Details
SOME Foods produce a range of foods specifically designed to help manage the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) through the use of low FODMAP ingredients.IBS affects 1 in 7 adults in Australia and worldwide it's estimated to affect from 9-23% of the population. A low FODMAP diet will benefit most patients with IBS, with controlled trials resulting in symptom improvement in 76% of cases.FODMAPs (Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides And Polyols) are short-chain carbohydrates (sugars) found in many common foods. Research through Monash University has found that when these sugars are poorly absorbed in the small intestine and fermented by bacteria to cause gas, they contribute to symptoms of IBS.For those on a low FODMAP diet, purchasing convenience food is rarely an option with the majority of available prepared foods containing many high FODMAP ingredients. That inspired co-founders Martine & Ronnie Banks to produce convenience foods, focusing initially on a range of cooking sauces, that taste authentic, have a home-made quality and use low FODMAP ingredients so that people like us could enjoy tasty but convenient food that supports their dietary restrictions and leaves them feeling good.When you're following a low FODMAP diet to help manage the symptoms of IBS and food intolerance, there are many foods you can't eat - but you can eat SOME.
