I also suffer with IBS but have found since changing my way of eating it has improved greatly.

I have cut down on bread, pasta and rice. I know I need a bit of these things from time to time, but I certainly don't need as much.

I don't know if you are familiar with the FODMAP diet, but if not here is the link to it:

ibsdiets.org/fodmap-diet/fo...

Take a look and see if you can change things around a bit using their advice. I know it may not all apply to you, but some of it might.

Thanks. Yes I do follow Fodmap when it flares up but I do like my green veg so quite restrictive

Bought apples today first time in ages so will see how it goes down

I have the same problem with the green leafy veg Smiffyliz really missing spring greens at the moment but recently discovered rainbow chard which looks a bit cabbage like tastes slightly spinach-y and doesn't cause any gastro upset 😀
