IBS can be irritated many times by certain foods, but not necessarily the same foods for everyone. Many people have experienced problems particularly with dairy foods and fatty foods. Caffeine may also be a problem, so pay attention to that if you drink coffee. On the other hand, fruits and vegetables and other high fiber foods can sometimes help relieve IBS. Just don't drastically change your diet all at once. That alone could cause distress. Stress also seems to be a significant factor in bringing on IBS symptoms. Try to create a lifestyle that reduces stress. Engage in calming activities once in a while like yoga or meditation. Also try to get regular exercise. It doesn't have to be strenuous. Something as simple as taking a walk every other day can help.
