Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Package

The Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Package is designed for individuals who have had celiac disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) ruled out and who have been told by their doctor that they have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

The package uses a Time Food Time Symptom (TFTS) Journal to determine the specific foods or food components that are contributing to symptoms. At each visit, I review the journal to determine consistent patterns between eating certain foods and symptoms, and use that as a basis for recommending which foods to reduce or eliminate in the diet.

Service Structure

The four services in the package are as follows:

1. Introduction to the TFTS Journal: An introduction on how to collect information using the Time Food Time Symptom Journal, customization of the journal for individual IBS symptoms, and verification after 3 days of data that the information is being collected correctly.

2. First Visit in IBS Package: Review of the first three weeks of data from the Time Food Time Symptom Journal, recommendation of foods or beverages to limit or avoid and why, and instructions for collecting the next 2 weeks’ worth of data.

3. Second Visit in IBS Package: Review of the second two weeks of data from the Time Food Time Symptom Journal, recommendation of additional foods or beverages to limit or avoid, and why.

4. Third Visit in IBS Package: Review of the last set of data from the Time Food Time Symptom Journal, recommendation of additional foods or beverages to limit or avoid, plus dietary and lifestyle changes that may help minimize IBS symptoms.

Optional: Functional Dyspepsia (add-on teaching): What it is, dietary changes to reduce symptoms, and the role of the vagus nerve.
