Irritable bowel: A condition where your large intestine is sensitive to stress, exercise, hormones and certain types of foods. Your GP can prescribe medicines that will help and diet with low levels of fermentable sugars will as well. Check out http://www.ibsdiets.org/fodmap-diet/fodmap-food-list/.
