I recall finding some study for all digestive ailments being about 30%, but here are two common diseases. I really need to start keeping track of my source but I always forget to. Each are somewhere around 10-30% of the US or the west depending on the study. Not all of this 30% is completely unable to go vegan, but a good portion are. About 60-70% report their conditions as being 'moderate to severe'. IBS sufferers have significant comorbidities with other diseases, further complicating matters. It should be noted that IBS is much lower in nonwestern countries, perhaps this is due to how many processed foods have excessive fodmaps (high fructose corn syrup, garlic and onion concentrate), perhaps its due to certain common medicine interactions, maybe its a reporting issue.
