I notice most recipes here include sugar. While sugar is not a trigger food, it's still unhealthy, for everyone, not just IBS users. Artificial sweeteners are just as bad if not worse. I recommend agave nectar, which is the juice of the agave cactus plant. I use it everywhere I want sweetening. It has a very low glycemic index, which means it doesn't produce sugar spikes (i.e. cravings) and requires far fewer calories to burn off. Just thought I'd contribute something, here, since I'm asking for so much help on these boards.
