IBS sufferers: could a simple patch test reveal your food triggers?
NCT ID NCT06288672
First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests whether avoiding foods identified by a skin patch test can relieve irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. Adults with IBS receive painless patches on their back containing 80 different foods or additives. Those with positive reactions are randomly assigned to avoid either the reactive foods (true diet) or non-reactive foods (sham diet) for 16 weeks. The goal is to see if personalized food avoidance improves IBS symptoms compared to a placebo diet.
