Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if low-FODMAP (Fermented Oligo-, Di-, Monosaccharides And Polyols) rye bread is better tolerated in irritable bowel syndrome than commonly available traditional rye bread higher in FODMAP carbohydrates. The study also aims to investigate patients' compliance to rye bread regimen, potential changes is gut microbiota and hydrogen production during the test periods (a marker of large bowel fermentation of poorly absorbed carbohydrates).
