Following recruitment for entry into the study, subjects be asked to complete symptom surveys and provide a fecal sample for calprotectin measurement. Shortly after their screening visit, patients will be randomized 1:1 to either the low FODMAP diet (experimental) or regular diet (control) group. Patients in the experimental group will schedule a telephone visit with a registered dietician. During this approximately hour-long session, patients in the low FODMAP cohort will be counseled regarding FODMAP containing foods. They will be asked to adhere to this diet over the next 6 weeks. At the end of the 6 week period, subjects will complete a 3-day food diary. Those in the regular diet group will be contacted by the dietician and given an educational handout at the beginning of the study period regarding best dietary practices. At the end of the 6 week study period, both groups will again be asked to complete another set of symptom surveys and provide a fecal sample for calprotectin measurement.
