I convinced myself that I could eat a certain museli. I am not sure why I made this decision but I did.
I had been having symptoms for months and things were getting progressively worse. Then one day I decided to strip everything back including my cereal. Imagine my surprise when around 11am I was symptom free.. unusual for me! I had been making myself ill everyday just because I was having the wrong museli..one with nuts in it... cashews and almonds. Now when I first went on the FODMAP diet cashews were not a problem, but new research has indicated that cashews are no good for those with FODMAP intolerance.
I bring this up because you have to be so careful. I really thought this museli was in my Sue Shepperd Food Shopping guide... but when I checked this morning it wasn't there. The research is developing and new foods are being added or taken off the list. Its important to stay with current research!
FYI for breakfast now I just have Freedom Foods Puffed Rice... mostly because I am trying to lose some weight .. too much chocolate : )
AND I generally find that I have symptoms around 4 hours after I eat something that reacts... this really helps narrow down what is causing the problems.
