IBS, Food Intolerance and Children
I am seeing an increasing number of children in my practice with IBS and digestive problems.
Symptoms can be distressing and frequently disrupt both school and home life. Parents are also affected and are obviously anxious to find a solution to the suffering of their children.
Today, children and young people are growing up with far more dietary and environmental hazards than did previous generations. Children are generally not major fans of a simple, natural diet, high in plant based foods and water!
As a consequence, they are more likely to experience the consequences of a refined and high sugar diet.
The digestive tract will feel the impact of this first. It is possible that food intolerance could also play a part in childhood IBS symptoms. Foods containing wheat, dairy products, eggs and yeast can be amongst the key dietary culprits for both children and adults with IBS.
A scientifically validated food intolerance test, undertaken with guidance from a qualified nutritional practitioner can help to identify any problem foods and potentially improve the symptoms of IBS.
