Wheat Bran

Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.

Wheat bran is the outer layer removed during wheat milling for concentrated fiber content. It delivers high fructan levels that accumulate rapidly during larger servings during preparation. Commercial wheat bran frequently lacks fermentation processing that would reduce compounds naturally. IBS management requires careful avoidance during elimination phases due to density. Pairing with adequate hydration supports fiber digestion without causing discomfort.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes

Concentrated wheat processing retains higher fructan density than whole grain alternatives, requiring strict avoidance during sensitive recovery phases. Combining with rice bran alternatives eliminates problematic compounds while preserving gentle texture during consumption. Cooking thoroughly prevents rough particles that some individuals find irritating during sensitive recovery periods. Storing unused portions in sealed containers prevents moisture absorption that degrades nutritional composition during storage.
