What else can I do to avoid problems?

These tips may help you feel better during and after eating:

  • Keep a food diary. Record everything you eat and whether it causes you any problems. Design your own diet around what works for you.

  • Stock your home with foods that you enjoy and do not cause you problems.

  • Eat several small meals a day rather than a few large meals. This helps many people reduce or avoid symptoms.

  • Eat when you are hungry.

  • Take small bites of food and chew each bite completely.
