I’ve started a subscription to the Fodmap made easy program and also purchased the NZ shipping list.

Some background, I am a trained lawyer and research things for a living. Two years ago my child was diagnosed with coeliacs so this isn’t my first time getting researching or getting my head around a new medical diet.

Even with this background, I found the Fodmap diet is sooooo hard to get your head around. Even after purchasing the heavily recommended Monash app (which is still useful), I was buying things I couldn’t eat by accident (chocolate) and reading all the ingredients on all the dairy free ice cream and coming home with nothing.

I wish I’d subscribed to the program a week ago when I started trying to figure everything out for myself. It would have saved me wasted money at the supermarket and my stress and anxiety levels have come way down having info at my fingertips that I trust.

Last night I cooked the nachos from the program and tonight is slow cooked beef with pasta. I seem to easily be able to find recipes in the program that suit ingredients in my house and that will keep my fussy / gluten free / low Fodmap family happy.

In case you are suspicious that this review is too good to be true, I will warn you that the timer function on the recipe app is silent, so you need to keep an eye on the screen to see when time is up (they are working on a fix for this). In the meantime, I’ll just use my oven timer as usual.

One last note, I did get out 7 books from the library on low fodmap, some had high fodmap ingredients and no limit on portion sizes. They mostly contradicted each other (eg on how long to be in step one for with no explanation as to why). Today I watched two videos from the program. It gave clear instructions for when to move on to step 2 with reasons why.

Thanks Alana, I am very grateful for your website. Hence the fact I took time to write this review when I should have been getting dinner on the table :)

Hi Alana

A big thank you

It has been so good to have you along on my journey! Your resources and personal emails have made this journey so much more manageable.

My journey
I was diagnosed in late 2025 with IBS and told that FODMAP was the way to go, although was told that it was too hard and that most people couldn't manage it.. Well, my situation consistently got worse and by Easter this year- camping with 4 days of diarrhea, I spoke to a Dietician and commenced the journey. I downloaded the Monash Uni App, tried to become familiar with all the categories and attempted to go alone as there are no certified FODMAP dieticians in my area. Then I found you - hooray! Hours of education, helpful recipes and ongoing support has brought me almost to the end of my journey.

I am definitely intolerant of gluten, okay with lactose on my second introduction, fructose seems okay, celery and leeks have only had small reactions and yesterday I had some mushrooms soup! Garlic is still on my list to re-0introduce.

Can I ask a question, if I test okay to one food in a category ie celery, could I assume that mushroom would be okay? - I know that I have tested both these but does the same apply for each of the FODMAP groups? I feel that if I have to otest every food, I'll be doing this for a year!

Some success: I have lost 7 kilos, do not constantly look for bathrooms and am able to ignore some bloating, noises etc in my tummy.

I did use the NERVA App for the first 8 weeks which I found very useful.

A little bit of yummy has been a life saver for me, literally. As a person with Multiple Sclerosis stomach issues were not my biggest issue, until they were! Finding this approach to food freedom has allowed me to feel able to enjoy cooking again and feel healthy. The recipes are wonderful and imaginative with lots of flavor and lots of choices. I followed the process and have benefited from the results. So worth it, trust the process and enjoy the results.

I tried to do Low Fodmap once before with the support of a dietitian and it didn't really work for me. I ended up just not eating because it seemed really difficult and I lost too much weight. Recently I was told to do it again and this time found ALBY - it has made such a difference, I understand it all so much better now and the recipes are so delicious that I am excited about food for the first time in many years and my husband is really enjoying every meal too. I've subscribed and it is well worth it. Alana is super responsive to questions.

I love the recipes. I've been eating bland foods for too long and this has helped me expand what I eat and enjoy it.

I was originally a recipe club member and it was incredible. Soooo many easy to follow recipes and they add new ones all the time.
I'm not a member of the FODMAP made easy and am particularly loving the meal plans and shopping list! I have two little ones and it's sometimes hard to remember to eat! Having the meal plan (and I can super easily swap meals if I want) stuck onto the fridge has really helped me eat better and therefore have much better control over my IBS. The team is so quick to respond and super helpful.
The recipes are so good you won't realise you are eating Low FODMAP and neither will your family and friends. Highly recommend! I can't fault it at all.

This company has been amazing. They initially helped me so much when I started my low fod journey. Now I am a recipe club member they are just as good.Alana answers any questions and is so helpful. I’ve told my gastroenterologist to recommend this company to his patients! Highly recommend!

This company has been fantastic for helping me to navigate my Low Fodmap journey.

They’ve answered many questions, given me extra support and advice, fantastic recipes and other tools, and at a very reasonable price.

I started out overwhelmed, but this company really put me at ease with following this restricted diet.

A little bit yummy website has been very helpful and resourceful navigating the low FODMAP diet. I contacted Alana for advice and she promptly replied with the help from her team to give me valuable advice and support to proceed forward to reach my goals.

The recipes have been absolutely incredible. Even though they're I'm gluten free now, I feel like I'm eating better than before I was gluten free.

I really enjoyed using this app, it really helped to get my eating on track. Alana was great at answering questions via email quickly. The meal plans and shopping lists made doing the low fodmap way of eating a lot easier, I must admit I was daunted at first but with this app it was easy and more importantly it has healed my gut and I know how to keep control of issues that arise now. Thanks Alana.
