Functional medicine offers a holistic approach to treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), aiming to address the underlying factors contributing to this complex gastrointestinal disorder. Functional medicine practitioners conduct comprehensive assessments, considering factors such as diet, gut health, stress levels, and lifestyle to identify potential triggers. Treatment may involve dietary modifications, including the low-FODMAP diet to reduce fermentable carbohydrates, as well as identifying and eliminating trigger foods. Balancing the gut microbiome with probiotics and other interventions, such as stress reduction techniques, may be part of the plan. Functional medicine aims to provide individualized and lasting relief from IBS symptoms, focusing on long-term gut health and overall well-being. Consulting with a healthcare provider trained in functional medicine can help individuals with IBS develop a tailored treatment strategy.
