12 Foods to Avoid with IBS

Certain Cruciferous Vegetables

Cruciferous vegetables include cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli. They may trigger IBS symptoms such as bloating, gas, and abdominal pain. [11]

Garlic and onions

Onions and garlics have a lot of health benefits, but digesting them can be extra difficult for people with IBS. These food ingredients can cause cramps and painful bloating with gas. [12] This can happen with both cooked and raw onions.

Conclusion

This list of foods is not exhaustive. It is important to remember people with IBS have different triggers. Some of these foods are fine for some people while they can trigger intense symptoms in others. Observe how food that you eat affects you and adjust your diet accordingly.
