Conclusion and Significance:
Symptoms perceived or reported by patients with IBS appear to be influenced by
the food consumed and diet plays a key role in this disease management. A case-specific died may help patients in
day to day life, because they are not told just what to avoid, but what they can consume. Moreover, individual diets
allow a larger variety in food choices as food items are not excluded in general just because classified as FODMAPs
or allergy-inducing, but are excluded or reduced according to individual susceptibility and tolerance. Furthermore,
a case-specific diet is usually elaborated by a patented specialist, which is also a guarantee for patients to have a
balanced diet that will not cause nutritional deficiencies by the time. For this reason, we believe that a case-specific
diet may be an effectual alternative to standardized exclusion diets or low-FODMAP diets. Yet, the number of
participants to this study is not statistically reliable; nor the single IBS-SS criteria can be used to establish whether
an improvement occurs; biochemical markers of inflammation should be taken into account, and other monitoring
questionnaires should be performed. Moreover, patients should be monitored for a longer time to establish if the
symptoms ameliorate and they maintain the results over time. Further studies must be performed to assess a feasible
dietary strategy for IBS management that can be followed life-long.
