Abstract

The article describes the clinical manifestations and their causes in the pathology of the small intestine in patients who complain of excessive bloating, recurrent abdominal pain syndrome, stool disorders with a tendency to relaxation. Such patients repeatedly return to the doctor. The evidence of a decrease in the activity of disaccharidases in this cohort of patients is presented. The emphasis is placed on the need to study the nutritional history, to identify products that provoke a violation of membrane digestion. The classification of carbohydrates with indication of products containing them is given. The essence of repeated and persistent clinical manifestations due to impaired membrane digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine is explained, which leads to their appearance in the large intestine in different volumes, which is accompanied by the splitting of carbohydrates with the formation of gases. On the one hand, this is a normal process, but when it gets out of control, the patient gets to the doctor. The essence of a carbohydrate–restricted diet is described - this is the low FODMAP diet and its decoding. The products containing oligosaccharides are indicated, which are capable of being cleaved by the enzyme alpha-galactosidase, which is absent in the human body, but is present in the microflora of the large intestine. Advice is given on limiting the intake of such products, both in terms of the frequency of intake and the volume of portions containing them, in order to avoid excessive amounts of intestinal gases, the development of a clinically painful condition. A thorough study of the nutritional history and the necessary correction of eating behavior is the main idea of this article, dedicated to the same type of clinical picture with varying degrees of manifestations of its symptoms.
