A New Era in IBS Treatment with At-Home Convenience. The InFoods IBS test provides a breakthrough tool for individuals with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) who seek to manage symptoms such as bloating and gastrointestinal pain. The inFoods® IBS test offers a personalized and non-invasive solution, helping patients to manage their condition naturally by identifying foods that may trigger their symptoms. Now, patients can access the inFoods IBS test from the comfort of their home with physician oversight, offering a more convenient pathway to health management helping IBS patients to regain control of their life.

The inFoods® IBS test is a groundbreaking advancement in the personalized treatment of IBS. Unlike IBS treatments that rely on medications to reduce symptoms, inFoods® IBS identifies specific foods that may trigger the patient´s symptoms allowing for tailored dietary changes that can reduce both bloating and gastrointestinal pain, encouraging patients to manage their condition naturally by avoiding the problematic foods identified by the inFoods IBS test. The test uses a patented technology to detect personal food sensitivities, helping patients achieve significant symptom relief by removing those trigger foods from their diet.

A recent double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical study—conducted at prestigious institutions including Mayo Clinic, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital), the University of Michigan, and Houston Methodist Hospital—demonstrated that the inFoods® IBS test significantly improved key IBS symptoms, such as Abdominal Pain Intensity (API) and bloating. Patients in the treatment group experienced significant symptom improvements but without the side effects commonly associated with drug therapies.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome affects 1 in 20 Americans, according to the American College of Gastroenterology, contributing to an estimated $10 billion in annual direct medical costs. Despite the high prevalence and economic burden, many individuals still struggle to find effective treatments due to the complex nature of the disorder.
