Neurotransmitter and Intestinal Interactions: Focus on the Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis in Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Abstract
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder of unknown etiology. IBS is caused by a disruption in the gut-brain axis. Given the importance of the gut microbiota in maintaining local and systemic homeostasis of immunity, endocrine, and other physiological processes, the microbiota-gut-brain axis has been proposed as a key regulator in IBS. Neurotransmitters have been shown to affect blood !ow regulation, intestinal motility, nutrient ...

Optimizing educational methods for the low FODMAP diet in disorders of gut–brain interaction: A feasibility randomized controlled trial
Abstract
Background: A diet low in fermentable oligo-saccharides, di-saccharides, mono-saccharides and polyols (low FODMAP diet) is complex and clinical effectiveness is achieved with dietitian-led education, although dietitian availability in clinical practice varies. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of undertaking a trial to investigate
the clinical and cost-effectiveness of different education delivery methods of the low FODMAP diet in ...

Low FODMAP Diet: Evidence, Doubts, and Hopes
Abstract: Food is often considered to be a precipitating factor of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in FODMAPs (Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, Mono-saccharides, And Polyols), which can be found in many common foods. A low FODMAP diet (LFD) is increasingly suggested for IBS treatment. However, long-term, large, randomized controlled studies are still lacking, and certainties and doubts regarding LFDs have grown, often in a disorderly and confused manner. Some potential LFD limitations and ...

Increasing Evidence That Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders Have a Microbial Pathogenesis
Abstract
The human gastrointestinal tract harbors most of the microbial cells inhabiting the body, collectively known as the microbiota. These microbes have several implications for the maintenance of structural integrity of the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier, immunomodulation, metabolism of nutrients, and protection against pathogens.
Dysfunctions in these mechanisms are linked to a range of conditions in the gastrointestinal tract, including functional gastroint...

Effects of Prebiotics vs a Diet Low in FODMAPs in Patients With Functional Gut Disorders
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT
Non-absorbable residues of the diet are fermented by intestinal microbiota, releasing gas. Thus, diets low in fermentable residues, such as low FODMAP diets, improve gas-related complaints; paradoxically, some products that are selectively fermented by colonic microbiota (prebiotics) produce a similar benefit.
NEW FINDINGS
The decrease in symptoms produced by a low FODMAP diet in patients with functional gut disorders disappeared soon after discontinua...

How to institute the low-FODMAP diet
Abstract
A diet low in poorly absorbed, fermentable, short chain carbohydrates (FODMAPs) is an effective strategy to manage symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The diet has gained traction since its original description in Australia 10 years ago and is now an internationally accepted dietary management strategy for IBS. Randomized controlled trials have raised the pro!le of the low-FODMAP diet to become a viable !rst-line therapy for IBS, when implemented under a dietitian’s guidance. Importantly, the diagnosis of IBS should be con!rmed ...
