Summary

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a multifaceted disorder where diet plays a pivotal role in symptom generation and management. The traditional dietary advice given to patients in clinical settings are based on the NICE guidelines. Some of the advice included in these guidelines have limited scientific evidence. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the traditional dietary advice in IBS, according to the NICE guidelines, within a primary health care setting, where treatment is delivered digitally and in groups of 8-12 individuals. As a sham comparator, one group will receive dietary advice according to the Swedish dietary guidelines regarding healthy eating habits.
