Welcome back to Rewriting the Narrative! Today, we dive deep into a topic that has gained significant attention in the health and nutrition community: the low FODMAP diet. While many have heard about it, the nuances surrounding its application and effectiveness are often misunderstood.  

Sarah and Meredith discuss how foods high in these specific types of sugars may impact digestive health- and NOT always in a bad way!

They review the importance of a step wise approach to dietary changes and why any eliminations should be short term, and not a stand alone intervention.
