Do explain more in the comments:-

How it has helped?

How long it took to reduce symptom severity?

Plus did you get a herxheimer reaction? (ie did the symptoms get worse before better!) & any other useful info :)

I've reduced the amount of bread and pastry products I eat and make my own sourdough.(less bloating and wind)

Reduced sugar, and rarely use processed foods. (Again, hidden wheat and sweeteners cause bloating and wind.)

Monosodiun Glutamate and many E numbers went when my children were small. (MSG used to give me stomach cramps and diarrhoea; certain E numbers made the children hyperactive)

I avoid peppers, chillies and aubergines and have reduced potatoes. (Bloating, wind and diarrhoea.)
