I know I'm one of the people who says I eat X, Y, or Z trigger and tolerate it. However, I also try to point out that I am stable or have learned awhile ago I am able to tolerate a trigger. I also at least sometimes say that IBS is a very individual thing and what works for me may not work for someone else. I know my system.
However, I will NOT ever again touch beef with a 10-foot pole. No way, UH UH!
We are all at least a little different. Be careful with the triggers. Especially if you are not stable, expect "retribution" if you indulge.
Don't know if I'm trying to defend myself or what, but I just wanted to put that out there.
