AIRE-2 Device for Study of Breath Analysis in IBD

The goal of this Prospective single-blinded intervention feasibility study is the utilization of the AIRE-2 device and FoodMarble app to elucidate the interplay among diet, symptoms, and microbial fermentable features in IBD patients with persistent intestinal symptoms and their household controls. AIRE-2 captures exhaled hydrogen and methane and FoodMarble app records breath levels, symptoms and dietary intake. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To assess the feasibility of using the AIRE-2 device, FoodMarble mobile app in a cohort of IBD patients and their household controls to collect data on diet, symptoms and exhaled H2 and CH4 levels. 2. 2. To assess the feasibility of using FoodMarble's FODMAP discovery kit protocol in a cohort of IBD patients and their household controls. 3. To collect preliminary data on the relation between diet, symptoms, and exhaled H2 and CH4 levels measured by the AIRE-2 device and FoodMarble app in a cohort of IBD patients and their household controls. 4. To explore the correlation between the fecal microbiome sequencing profile with exhaled H2 and CH4 levels, diet and symptoms in a cohort of IBD patients and their household controls. You will: 1. Record regular diet in the FoodMarble app and collect baseline stool samples 2. You will then take a low FODMAP diet for 24 hours every week and record the diet and symptoms. After the diet, you will take the FODMAP challenge of Lactose, Fructose, Sorbitol and Inulin (one every week) using Sachets provided by FoodMarble company, record exhaled breath levels, symptoms and collect stool. This process will take 4 weeks. 3. Visit clinic to submit stool samples
