If every food feels like a trigger (even safe foods) food may not actually be the problem. For a significant number of people with IBS, the gut is reacting to something other than what's on the plate. Dietitian Joe Leech explains five specific signs that point to a different driver, and what that means for how you treat it.

What you'll discover:

Why symptoms that start before eating, not after, signal a nervous system issue, not a food one
Why the same food can be perfectly fine one day and a problem the next (and what the real variable is)
What a shrinking safe food list actually means and why more restriction makes things worse
Why urgency in IBS is a signalling a problem, not a diet problem
The overlap between IBS and other symptoms (anxiety, bladder, fatigue) that reveals the real driver
