Is it okay for someone with bowel issues such as diarrhea or ibs to eat pasta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IBS: It depends. If you notice any symptoms such bloating, gas, heartburn, cramps, loose BMs, fatigue after eating with bread, flour, or pasta then it is not okay. In fact, I would avoid them altogether forever. If absolutely no symptoms then probably okay. I would recommend also a strong probiotic as well.
