Irritable bowel syndrome is currently considered a disorder related to gut-brain communication and emerging evidence supports the involvement of gut microbes. Dr. James Versalovic updates what we know so far about the contribution of an altered gut microbiota to the development of the condition and the available science-backed tools for relieving symptoms.

Bacteria and fungi in the human gut microbiota may contribute to the underlying mechanisms of IBS, which means the latter can be explored as a potential target for IBS. This article explores what is known about the role of the gut microbiome and yeast probiotics in irritable bowel syndrome.

The purpose of the article is to uncover how dietary components and long-term dietary patterns interact with and influence gut microbiota composition and function and intestinal inflammation.

Little is known about the relationship between diet, the composition and function of the gut microbiota and clinical symptoms of IBS. New findings identify how IBS symptom severity is related to a higher intake of foods with poor nutritional quality and gut microbiome features at both subspecies level and metabolic pathways involved in carbohydrate metabolism.

The low FODMAP diet has been shown to be effective in managing the symptoms of IBS as second-line dietary advice when healthy eating approaches have failed to reduce symptoms. However, this eliminative diet is not without its challenges, which can be overcome by following the advice found below.

An accurate diagnosis of patients with IBS remains a challenge because it relies largely on clinical criteria. Now scientists have developed an improved disease classification technique that enables personalized diagnosis of pediatric patients with IBS based on their gut microbiome.
Personalized nutrition is still in its infancy but it is an increasingly important area of research that may one day help us better plan nutritional interventions to ensure a better response from patients.

An individual’s gut microbiota composition might be used in predicting responses to dietary interventions. However, there’s still inconsistent evidence to support the existence of signature gut microbiota compositions that predict clinical response to diet in obese and IBS patients.

A recent study by Philippe Marteau has analyzed and evaluated the speed at which abdominal discomfort improves after a fermented milk product (FMP) is consumed.
