WHAT IS PORRIDGE?

Porridge is a nutritious breakfast meal made from oats, and milk or water. It can also be known as oatmeal. 

You can use different spices, fruits and toppings to make your porridge tastier!

IS PORRIDGE GOOD FOR IBS?

Porridge is good for IBS as it is a great source of low fermentable fibre. This means you should experience a large amount of gas from consuming porridge.

Porridge made from 40g of oats contains 4 grams of fibre (1). 

Fibre from porridge can help you with IBS-C and IBS-D as it bulks up the stool. For IBS-C, this makes stools easier to pass and in IBS-D, this helps to pass more solid stool. 

Porridge contains ten times less resistant starches (a type of fibre) than raw oats and therefore porridge may be a better option for IBS patients (2). 

Resistant starches act like prebiotic, which means they are broken down by gut bacteria. During the bacterial fermentation a lot of gas is produced (3). In some IBS patients that gas can cause IBS symptoms such as bloating and stomach pain.

OTHER HEALTH BENEFITS OF PORRIDGE

Aside from the gut health benefits of fibre, porridge also contains a type of fibre called beta-glucans. Beta-glucans have proven antidiabetic effects and efficiently lower LDL cholesterol (4, 5).

CAN PORRIDGE IRRITATE THE GUT?

Porridge should not irritate the gut. However, it may increase excess gas and bloating if you are not used to meals higher in fibre. 

If you find that porridge does irritate your gut, try a smaller portion and slowly increase over time. 

Remember that IBS management is a multifactorial approach. This means that aside from diet modification, you should also pay attention to sleep optimisation, stress management, optimal hydration, and regular exercise.

IS PORRIDGE LOW FODMAP?

Porridge oats are naturally low FODMAP (6). But to make porridge low FODMAP, you have to use low FODMAP milk or a low FODMAP plant-based milk alternative.

Examples of low FODMAP milk and plant-based milk alternatives are:

  • Lactose-free milk
  • Rice milk
  • Almond milk

LOW FODMAP PORRIDGE TOPPINGS

To make your porridge even more nutritious and delicious, you can add some toppings. But pay attention to make sure they are low FODMAP. 

You can add to your porridge:

  • Low FODMAP seeds such as chia seeds
  • Low FODMAP spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla 
  • Low FODMAP fruits such as unripe banana, kiwi, blueberries
  • Low FODMAP nuts such as almonds or walnuts
  • Low FODMAP yogurts like lactose-free yogurt or coconut yogurt 
  • Low FODMAP sweeteners such as maple syrup
  • Dark chocolate or cocoa nibs 

By adding some toppings to your porridge, you will get more diverse nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Additionally, by adding some nuts, fruits, or chocolate you will increase the fibre content, which plays a role in gut health and overall health.

LOW FODMAP PORRIDGE RECIPES

Now that you have all the information you need about the porridge and IBS, here are some low FODMAP porridge recipes!

  • Nutty banana split porridge
  • Porridge with peanut butter and blueberries
  • Carrot cake porridge
  • Caramelised banana topped porridge
  • Porridge with strawberries
  • Cardamom scented porridge
  • Pumpkin spice porridge
  • Creamy porridge
  • Tropical porridge

SUMMARY

Porridge has many benefits for your overall health, including gut health and IBS. It can be beneficial for both IBS-C and IBS-D. 

Porridge can be a great meal option, even on a low FODMAP diet. When preparing porridge make sure you use only low FODMAP ingredients if you are following a low FODMAP diet. 

If you find that porridge irritates your gut, try a smaller portion and then gradually increase it over time.

😓 IBS feels like a continuous emotional rollercoaster. Yes there are physical IBS symptoms, but there are also many unseen struggles of IBS including social anxiety and loneliness. This can leave us feeling exhausted and not knowing where to turn to next. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
😊️ Instead of going through this alone, adopt the Take Control approach of community..​this could look like taking a step to reach out to a loved one that will you trust or joining an online group of other people with IBS who 'get it'. Doing this will make you feel seen when your IBS takes you for a ride.

💩 Many people I talkt to are trying to manage their IBS through restriction. The irony being that even with avoiding multiple foods, they still have symptoms.

🙏 Whilst you may have some food intolerances, it shouldn't be multiple. A restrictive diet will worsen your gut health. Instead of avoiding multiple foods and Still having symptoms adopt the Take Control approach of following the low FODMAP diet to identify specific food triggers and tolerance levels.

😪 When following a low FODMAP diet, consuming enough fibre may be challenging as often high fibre foods are restricted. However, eating enough fibre is essential for helping bulk and soften stools! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
🤩 Life should not have to be this challenging! ​​​​​​​​Using the Take Control 2.0 approach can allow you to discover foods and drinks which you can tolerate to improve your fibre intake - which is so important for gut health!​​​​​​​​

🙋🏼‍♀️ I am a huge advocate of the Mediterranean diet because it is repeatedly shown to be the best option for our health regardless of what is studied. AND especially in gut health.

💩 Including wholegrain, oily fish, plenty of veggies, fruits, nuts and olive oil is easy with a few tweaks to any diet!

✅ Swap your white carbs to brown
✅ Add 2 portions of fish per week - one should be oily like mackerel or salmon
✅ Eat the rainbow with fruit and veg
✅ Snack on nuts
✅ Switch your oil to olive oil

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
🤔 In reality, people like to over complicate exercise. This is why we use the term 'movement' in the Take Control method. Avoid the confusion and keep it simple by going for a daily 30 min gentle walk and you will see the benefits!​​​​​​​​

😣 IBS is a condition that others cannot see. As humans, we struggle to understand or truly believe in things that we can't touch, hold or see. As a result, IBS sufferers often feel quite alone.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
😇 IBS is estimated to affect 5-10% of the worldwide population - so you really aren’t alone! Follow the Take Control process of finding a community to support you - there are lots of online forums where you can chat and share your worries with other people who completely understand. ​​​​​​​​

⁉️ Have you heard of these symptoms before?

😳 Both of these symptoms can be caused by a few things and one of them is bowel cancer. But we don't know based on symptoms alone so please go and get checked.

🩸Blood can appear on a toilet tissue, in the toilet bowl or it can look like part or all of your stool is black.

⚖️ Unexplained weight loss means that you have lost weight despite eating adequate calories and not really changing your exercise routine. It can be common in IBS to lose weight but this is due to eating less food and so it is explainable.

🙏🙏 If you have either of these symptoms please see your doctor to get checked, don't take the chance.

😭 Can you relate? Comment below👇👇​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
😫 Suffering from IBS can be difficult and burdensome especially when trying to go about your daily life. IBS is a condition that cannot be seen which makes it even more difficult for others to understand and can often feel very isolating😢. 

👉 Instead of keeping this condition to yourself, adopt the Take Control principle of community and get support from people who also have this condition. You can do this by opening up to friends (1 in 10 people have this!) or joining  online FB groups - this way you won't feel so alone in your fight!

😞 IBS is a very complex disorder to navigate by yourself. It’s more than just altering your diet, a lot of factors are at play with your IBS. Trying to work out what triggers your IBS is an absolute mind field.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Adopting the Take Control Method, where the 4 pillars of IBS relief are all addressed (diet, movement, mental health and sleep), has helped so many of my clients to achieve that ultimate symptom relief because it considers EVERYTHING, not just what you out in your mouth.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
