Abstract in brief

  • The randomized clinical trial found that both gut-directed hypnotherapy and the low FODMAP diet were similarly effective in reducing gastrointestinal symptoms in IBS patients, with improvements maintained at 6 months.
  • Hypnotherapy showed additional benefits in improving psychological factors like anxiety and depression compared to the diet, although both groups experienced similar quality of life improvements.
  • The study suggests that the long-term relief from gut-directed hypnotherapy is comparable to the low FODMAP diet for IBS symptoms, but hypnotherapy may offer extra psychological advantages.]

Six weeks of gut-directed hypnotherapy is just as effective as the low FODMAP diet in tackling IBS symptoms. The gut health improvements are durable, even six months after intervention. https://t.co/BaCJowhW6p

But diet isn't the only thing. CBT and exercise interventions have been shown to be very effective at improving symptoms of IBS. https://t.co/zz5KSPVeLW https://t.co/aq1dPOzh87

Durable effects of gut‐directed hypnotherapy are similar to those of the low FODMAP diet for relief of gastrointestinal symptoms. Hypnotherapy has superior efficacy to the diet on psychological indices. https://t.co/t1AzjRqWgW
