“…First, a better understanding of BAM/BAD by medical professionals can lead to more useful consultations and greater satisfaction for patients. Second, dietary changes, especially the avoidance of high-fat foods which trigger symptoms, can have long-term health benefits beyond the improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms 25. Third, accurate diagnosis has a positive impact on the mental health of patients suffering from BAM/BAD with significant improvement seen in areas of embarrassment, low self-esteem and feeling nervous leaving home 26…”

They present a case for the development of formal guidance to help clarify practice in patients presenting with diarrhoea, in particular with regard to the question of the diagnostic value of using the SeHCAT (tauroselcholic (75 selenium) acid) test.…”
