PSST HEY YOU ANSWER KEY FREE
Does she really need to limit her portion of avocado or pistachios when she simply needs to swap her two daily glasses of cow’s milk for a lactose free option? If your patient’s diagnosis is simply lactose intolerance you’ve now advised her to avoid multiple vegetables, fruits, wheat, beans, and various sources of fiber. Poor digestion of lactose, or the sugar in cow’s milk, is prevalent throughout the U.S. In this situation though, applying a complicated, although well researched diet to a person whose food intake you haven’t actually assessed? There may be a better approach. For individuals who have IBS it may be the key to finding relief from bloating, diarrhea, gas and other uncomfortable GI side effects which occur when consuming certain foods. The FODMAP diet has gotten great media attention recently and for good reasons. Without even asking her what she was actually eating (and prior to seeing the doctor), you promptly diagnosed her with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and provided a handout from the Internet on the low fermentable oligosaccharide, disaccharide, monosaccharide and polyol diet or FODMAP for short. Rather than just starting her on a diet for IBS (which as a registered dietitian I very well could have), I sent her in for an appointment to make sure all other medical causes of her symptoms beyond diet were ruled out. You see, my friend had been complaining about a lot of uncomfortable gastrointestinal symptoms which she had never discussed with a doctor.
Recently I referred a friend to the primary care doctor you’re currently training under.
Hey you! Yea, the one in the short lab coat with the big brain.
