Abstract

The proposed case will discuss irritable bowel syndrome. Individualized medical nutrition therapy is critical in the disease management. In this case, the learner will be provided with details to conceptualize the case and will be able to conduct a comprehensive nutrition assessment to evaluate the nutritional status. After identifying and prioritizing nutrition problems, the learner will determine the nutrition diagnoses and write proper statements. Based on the collected data, the learner will develop a nutrition care plan with appropriate goals, interventions, and strategies for monitoring and evaluation. Unspecified-IBS encounter challenges with food as it triggers the symptoms. Thus, the learner will evaluate the nutrient composition of dietary history and provide a substitute considering individual tolerance and severity of the symptoms. In addition, FODMAP will be applied. It also teaches patients what foods or eating patterns would be best (or best to avoid) for their day-to-day activities through self-awareness of symptoms and dietary food log.
