IBS symptoms and the 37 trigger foods you should avoid

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that affects the digestive system.

It causes symptoms like stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation. These tend to come and go over time and can last for days, weeks or months at a time. According to Bupa, around four in 10 Brits suffer from digestive problems and about two in 10 people have been diagnosed with IBS - with many more not even aware they have it.

This IBS Awareness Month, nutritional experts at Origym have warned of the most stomach cramping foods you need to be aware of and revealed why they may be an IBS trigger.
