The goal of this series is to consider different food-related culprits to IBS symptoms, not to create food fear and food restriction. Before undergoing dietary changes, please work with a nutrition professional to ensure you are meeting your body’s nutritional needs in a healthy manner.

Well, there's another reason why high-protein diets can cause stomach distress: insufficient carbohydrate and fiber intake. Quite often, high-protein diets emphasize carbohydrate restriction, which naturally makes it difficult to meet fiber needs, since fiber is from carbohydrates.
