FRQoL is significantly degraded in patients with organic gastrointestinal illness diseases, and hypervigilance around food appears to contribute most to this. Use of dietary treatment and meeting with an RD were associated with lower FRQoL, though it is unclear if patients sought RD assistance before FRQoL declined. Future studies on the relationship between dietary treatment, RD support and FRQoL are warranted.
