I recently started having IBS-like symptoms and was on the lookout for more information about how to improve my diet to reduce discomfort. I went on the reddit IBS forum (http://www.reddit.com/r/ibs) and found a link to a copy of this book. What a great combination of description of how FODMAP works, directions for different types of IBS-sufferers, details about reintroduction, and recipes! This was exactly the kind of resource I was looking for, and the recipes also provide detailed adjustments for particular types of FODMAP plans.
Definitely going to keep this handy while I work on my diet.
