Two diets compared for irritable bowel syndrome
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two special diets to see which works better for people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) that causes diarrhea or mixed bowel habits. Half the participants will follow a diet called CDED, and the other half will follow the low FODMAP diet, to find out which one helps symptoms more.
