anyone else been on this diet before?? My GI specialist just put me on this a few days ago and i'm extremely confused. On my sheet some big things that are in almost everything is to avoid milk, soybeans, rye and wheat.. But soy, milk, and wheat is in so many things.. can we consume foods that contain milk, soy, and wheat? or does the foods have to be lactose free, wheat free, gluten free, and so free???? For example on my bread column it said i can eat potato bread but then when i looked at the ingredients it said it contains wheat, soy, and milk... HELP PLEASE

I did low fodmap for a couple of weeks about a month ago, it took a lot of planning and label reading to adhere to it strictly. You are supposed to omit everything on the "bad" list at first to see if your situation improves, and then slowly, one thing at a time, reintroduce things to see what causes you issues.

Here are some food ideas that might help:

I avoud Gluten and dairy (I can eat hard cheeses and to be safe I take a lactaid). I eat soy in moderation (soy ice cream, gluten free soy sauce). This may be helpful:
