Our Methodology

The Science of Certainty.

We don't guess. We verify. GutWise is built on official data, medical standards, and the latest clinical research in dietary science.

1. The "Safe Plate" Database

We don't just scrape Yelp reviews. We go to the source. Our proprietary database is built on hard documentation and rigorous analysis.

Official Data Extraction

We download official Allergen & Nutrition Guides directly from corporate headquarters of every chain we list.

The "FODMAP Filter"

Every ingredient list is analyzed against established clinical standards to find hidden triggers like garlic powder or HFCS.

2. The Reintroduction Roadmap

The goal of the Low FODMAP diet is not to stay on it forever. Our Reintroduction Engine is built strictly on standard 3-Phase clinical protocols.

Phase 1
Elimination
Reduce inflammation and symptoms fast.
Phase 2
Challenge
Test specific groups using the "Ladder Method".
Phase 3
Freedom
A personalized diet that works for YOU.

3. Symptom Tracking Standards

When you log a symptom in GutWise, we use medical standards to ensure the data is useful for you and your doctor.

Bristol Stool Scale

We use the clinical standard (Types 1-7) to categorize bowel movements, helping identify constipation vs. motility issues accurately.

Temporal Correlation

Our algorithm looks for patterns based on digestion windows (4-24 hours), consistent with how food moves through the digestive tract.

Our Promise

We are Independent

We do not accept money from restaurants to be listed as "Safe". Our data is 100% objective.

We are Transparent

If we aren't sure about an ingredient, we mark it as "Caution" or "Unsafe" to protect you.

We are Evolving

Science changes. As new clinical research emerges, we update our database automatically.

Disclaimer

GutWise is an information tool and lifestyle companion. We are not doctors. Our data is based on publicly available nutritional information and general Low FODMAP guidelines. Always consult with a gastroenterologist or registered dietitian for medical advice.
