A number of different treatment options are cited within the literature for IBS; however, dietary modifications are not viewed as a priority in many cases. Sulphur-containing foods such as beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, garlic and onions have been identified as being extremely flatulogenic.3 Evidence relating to the exclusion of sulphur-containing foods is limited and, in many cases, dismisses exclusion diets as being of no use, limited use, or not proven to be effective. Nevertheless, other studies acknowledge that some foods may play a role in producing gas in the IBS patient.
