Coffee, Alcohol, and Artificial Sweeteners Have Temporal Associations with Gastrointestinal Symptoms

ConclusionsCoffee, alcohol, and artificial sweeteners were associated with GI symptoms in this large IBS-predominant sample. Symptom onset is often within 2  h postprandial, but some foods were associated with a delayed response, possibly an important consideration in implementing dietary recommendations. Clinical trials must test the causality of the demonstrated food–symptom associations.
