Abstract:
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) sufferers frequently correlate their symptoms with the consumption of certain foods. As a result, scientific study has increasingly focused on the role of nutrition in IBS in recent times, and dietary management is now seen as an essential strategy in the treatment of IBS. The objective is to summarize the best available data on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and diagnosis of IBS, along with its impact on social life and health, and to provide practical treatment and dietary recommendations for generalists and specialists. IBS has been discovered to be a symptom cluster resulting from a variety of diseases rather than a single condition. Alterations in the gut microbiota, intestinal permeability, gut immune function, motility, visceral sensation, brain-gut interactions, and psychosocial status are all essential factors in the development of IBS. The choice of diagnostic tests and therapies is affected by the major symptom (IBS with diarrhea, IBS with constipation, or mixed IBS). In randomized clinical studies, a variety of nutritional, lifestyle, medicinal, and behavioral interventions have been found to be helpful. An personalized, holistic approach to IBS management that includes dietary, lifestyle, medicinal, and behavior therapy is most effective.
