Table 2.
Mean dietary intake of patients at baseline (habitual diet) and on a low-FODMAP (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols diet) (LFD). No significant difference in energy and macronutrients content were found between the habitual diet and LFD and AdLFD (Adapted LFD). The reported results are referring to the 41 patients evaluated at T3. ns = not significant.
