“I’ve had digestive problems all of my life.  I’ve been vegetarian since 1979 and was diagnosed in 1999 (after testing) with a delayed milk allergy, so also became dairy free at that point.  Unfortunately, the years of eating and drinking dairy resulted in diverticular disease so I also have intolerances to refine sugar, onions and seeds.  Despite staying off these foods, my digestion was getting worse (I’d got to the point where I was taking a spare pair of jeans out with me!) and it wasn’t until Jodie suggested I try the Fodmap diet last summer that life took a decided turn for the better.  I now feel normal for the first time in many years and it seems that I have intolerances also to cauliflower and mushrooms (so also Quorn, although I can have one portion of these foods without incident). Providing I stay off these foods I am fine and happily, I’m also now able to eat other foods, like pulses, which I previously couldn’t tolerate.  I am very grateful indeed!”
