Irritable Bowel Syndrome Diet

Can you lose weight with irritable bowel syndrome?

The weight loss is not the typical symptom of IBS, rather it can be secondary to food choices the people make in an effort to ease IBS symptoms. IBS can result in significant abdominal pain and cramping which cause people to consume less food than they normally would. This creates a calorie deficit state in them that can lead to weight loss.
