Description

Researchers at Monash University have developed the low FODMAP diet and a corresponding app to assist in the management of gastrointestinal symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The Monash University FODMAP diet works by swapping foods high in fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs), with low FODMAP alternatives. Around 75% of people with IBS experience symptom relief on a low FODMAP diet. The app comes directly from the research team at Monash and includes the following: - General information about the FODMAP diet and IBS. - Easy to understand tutorials to guide you through the app and the 3-Step FODMAP diet. - A Food Guide detailing the FODMAP content for hundreds of foods using a simple 'traffic light system'. - A list of branded products that have been certified by Monash as low FODMAP. - A collection of over 70 nutritious, low FODMAP recipes. - Functions that allow you to create your own shopping list and add notes to individual foods - A Diary that enables you to record food eaten, IBS symptoms, bowel habits and stress levels. The Diary will also guide you through step 2 of the diet - FODMAP reintroduction. - The ability to adjust units of measurement (metric or imperial) and activate colour blindness assistance.

    I got this app some year and a half ago and I use it *constantly*. Highly recommend if you are on the FODMAP diet!!!

  • Database is useless

    Doesn’t allow refunds? What a scam. This is supposed to be a database of foods with fodmap scores but they don’t have any foods that a normal person would eat, just a bunch of expensive foods that are already labeled as low fodmap. Good luck finding any items from a regular grocery store. I wasted $8 on a useless app when I have to Google the fodmap content of any foods i actually plan to eat.

  • I’m disappointed

    There are free app that give more details with regards to serving size and max serving size. It’s very surprising that Monash doesn’t do the same. Potatoes for example. My Dre app shows the percentage of each fod map it also says how many potatoes ( and size i.e medium potatoes) you can it and it still remain low fod map. MoNash on the other hand says 1/4 cup but up 500g. In my opinion it’s not informative enough and comes across as lazy.

  • So much ad spyware

    This app is constantly contacting Facebook, Google, etc. just look at the privacy report.

  • Not what I expected

    First of all, there’s no search option. Under the Food Guide, most of the suggested foods are not available in the U.S., at least not at my neighborhood Kroger. I’d love to have help from a dietitian, but I’m not paying out of pocket. I’ll ask my NP to refer me to a nutritionist in my area, one whom my Medicare will cover.

  • Expensive Advertisment

    a useless app that only promotes licensed products, offers little helpful information that isn’t easily accessible or complete and can be found elsewhere for free

  • Wouldn't have paid for this

    $8 most of it looks "foreign". No oats/oatmeal? Hmm

  • Database Helpful Other Features Need Enhancement

    List of foods and amounts is helpful. On the page showing companies and services it would be helpful to be able to filter by location, i.e., I’m in the USA and only want to see selections available here. Diary should have enhanced features to save meals, track weight and reactions and be searchable. Doesn’t need to be full-fledged like My Fitness Pal but along those lines. For the price I don’t think there is enough value but I appreciate that it is created and maintained by Monash, a very reputable source. I’d rather pay more and have more features.

  • Skip This Update

    I found this app very useful until the latest update. Not only are my previous reintroductions gone, but the text is cut off in the reintroductions window so you can only guess what food you are supposed to be reintroducing. The text is there but only IF you are using the smallest possible font on your phone. I'm an older adult and can't read small fonts anymore. ☹️ This update does not consider the accessibility of those with poor eyesight. It's very disappointing and honestly, not very professional either. It's sad to see this happen to what used to be such a good resource.

    I was hoping for a features similar to the Carb Manager App where you can scan and track the foods you are eating and then see the FODMAP score. This app doesn’t have specific foods I am looking for and is hard to use if you are trying to discover which products in the store are or are not FODMAP. I am disappointed that I purchased this app, even for only $8.
