Summary
This study compares the DOMINO diet app to the strict low FODMAP diet for easing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. About 110 adults with IBS will use either the app or follow the strict diet. The goal is to see if the app works as well as the standard diet, offering a more flexible option for symptom relief.
