The diary organizes observations without assuming that one food caused a symptom. Entries are stored locally in this browser and are not synchronized to a FODMAP Check account.
Serving guidance and diet stages are interpreted with resources from Monash University and NIDDK. This tool provides educational information and does not diagnose IBS, SIBO or food intolerance.
Frequently asked questions
What should I record in an IBS food diary?
Record meals, approximate portions, timing, symptoms, intensity and useful context such as stress or sleep.
How long should I keep a symptom diary?
A consistent period is more useful than isolated entries. You can continue during elimination and structured reintroduction.
Is my diary private?
Entries are stored locally and are not synchronized to an account. Someone using the same device and browser profile may still be able to view them.
What happens if I clear browser data?
Clearing site storage may delete the diary. Export a CSV if you want to keep a separate copy.
Can the diary identify trigger foods?
No. It organizes observations but cannot prove that a food caused a symptom.
