    Recently, it has been proposed to limit fermentable carbohydrates (a low FODMAP diet) in combination with a gluten-free diet (GFD) to reduce the symptoms of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
    .


    Different research reports claim that IBS is related to the dysbiosis of the gut microbiota


     

     

    In this clinical trial study, 42 patients with IBS received 6 weeks of LF-GFD intervention
    .


    The IBS Symptom Severity Score (IBS-SSS) was used to assess symptoms, and stool samples were collected at baseline and after the intervention, and quantitative 16 S rRNA PCR was used to determine the diversity of the gut microbiota before and after 6 weeks of dietary intervention


     

    Thirty patients (mean age 37.
    8±10.
    7 years) in this study completed 6 weeks of diet
    .


    Compared with baseline, IBS-SSS was significantly reduced after LF-GFD intervention (P=0.


     

    This study showed that the severity of IBS symptoms of IBS patients who received LF-GFD intervention was significantly improved, and their FC levels would also decrease after normalization of the composition of their intestinal microbiota
