Summary
This study looked at how certain carbohydrates (FODMAPs) affect movement in the large intestine and cause symptoms in 15 healthy volunteers. Each person had three colonoscopies where a small tube measured colon pressures and delivered FODMAPs directly. The goal was to understand the link between FODMAPs and gut symptoms, which may help explain Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
