He should know enough to avoid the foods and stress that trigger an episode. It's different for everyone. Do not confuse this with lactose intolerance. I enjoy gallons of dairy products without triggering an episode, but if I drink one carbonated beverage or have a single Taco Hell taco... I'll be shitting molten lava for three days straight and hitting the pot six to ten times each day.
The wife put me on a gluten free diet for a month and for three weeks out of that month, I shit fire four to six times a day.

I have IBS started about 6 years ago and when I first got it I got sick all the time. I have to avoid dairy and food that is too spicy or greasy.
Now with diet, exercise, and learning to handle stress better I barely have any symptoms at all and when I do there are nothing compared to what they once were.
