9. The Connection between Eating Disorders and IBS

In the world of IBS, people’s relationship to food is not really something many think about until they get more educated on IBS and the topic of eating disorders. The more I have looked into this connection, the more I realize just how common it is. In fact about 15 to 25 percent of people that are diagnosed with IBS also have some sort of disordered eating, so what does this all mean?   During this episode of Luxury IBS, I share my thoughts on the connection between IBS and eating disorders which is a pretty tricky topic to cover. I talk about what an eating disorder is, why eating habits can impact your gut microflora, and why it’s important to understand what nutrition actually means and how it affects you.    Connect with Becky: Download the FREE IBS Friendly Grocery Guide: https://www.beckyrashidifard.com/fodmap-friendly-basket-bible  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beckyrashidifard?   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beckyrashidifard/  Website: https://www.beckyrashidifard.com/
