I kind of see it as a fad too but I don't at all doubt anyone's positive results. And not as much of a fad as lemon juice, cayenne pepper and maple syrup cleanses. While it makes sense to rest your digestive system, you can also do tremendous benefit to your system in many other ways. I wouldn't forgo pre and probiotics for IF. As for the weight loss and metabolism benefits, that is going to depend a lot on your body type and genetics. It's logical to think it might benefit some but not others.
