Awwwww! Thanks for the shout out! This is such an important topic. In my humble opinion, IBS also speaks volumes about the state of our food supply. There is a reason that IBS is so common and a lot has to do with the easy accessibility of highly adulterated foods. I've also worked with a fair number of patients for whom we've identified dairy as their primary problem. These patients are often BIPOC and much more likely to be lactose intolerant. It doesn't make sense that 3 cups of dairy a day is part of the US Dietary Guidelines when 68% of the world's population has lactose malabsorption.
