<p>I had to stop eating whole nuts and now eat the butters - almond &amp; cashew. Much kinder on the digestion</p>

<p>The fiber can be rough on digestion. Have you considered soaking almonds to make home-made almond milk? Here's a recipe: <a href="http://everydaypaleo.com/2012/07/11/homemade-almond-milk/" rel="nofollow">Homemade Almond Milk</a></p>

<p>I got IBS\D too, recently started drinking home made protein + carbs shakes (vegetarian)</p> <p>i add about 15-25 grms (heap full table spoon +-) almond powder as a healty carb source (among other things) and drink it about 2-1 hours before i go to sleep</p> <p>only did a few times but it seems to help a lot and im one of those that almost nothing helps them</p> <p>im now trying to find an explanation to this and stumbeld on this site so i had to say somthing</p> <p>also found a refferance to almond powder being potentially benneficial here (http://ibs.about.com/b/2008/07/17/going-nuts.htm)</p> <p>hope this helps</p>

<p>I love nuts too, but they do contain lots of fiber. Fiber is fermentable and can potentially promote the overgrowth of gas-producting/symptoms causing bacteria in the small intestine. Just cutting back a bit should help.</p>

<p>If you can see large pieces of visible undigested almond in your stool, then I have a suggestion for you: chew more thoroughly.</p> <p>I always scarfed down my food when I was young, and I still battle the urge to rush to finish meals. Digestions starts in the mouth, and thoroughly masticating your food will help digestion.</p> <p>Granted, this might not help your IBS, but I do suggest focussing on chewing for a bit, until you "relearn" how to chew food.</p>
