A cooking and eating community for IBS sufferers.

Here's the thing: I love to eat, I love to cook, I love to read food blogs...and I have IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Most of what the rest of the world eats without worry, will make me very sick. There are certain rules and guidelines that IBS sufferers can follow to manage their symptoms and keep their problems under control, and I decided it was time to start a cooking community for all of us!

Please share with us the kinds of foods you can safely eat, and your favorite recipes. Tags are appreciated! Please be tolerant of others; the syndrome we all share has a wide range of differences from person to person. I can't claim that any of this is scientific, but this is what works for me. I'd like to hear what works for you, too.
