Hi Anushri

Here are some ideas to help the healing process.

Causes
IBS can be caused by a variety of factors, including poor diet and nutrition, food allergies, imbalanced levels of hydrochloric acid, impaired immunity, infections, lack of exercise, pharmaceutical drugs, and stress.


Quick Action Plan for IBS

1. Avoid all sugars, refined flour products, and carbohydrates, milk and dairy products, processed foods that contain preservatives and artificial sweeteners, alcohol, hydrogenated and trans-fatty oils, as well as foods that are common allergens.

2. Emphasize organic, fresh vegetables and non-citrus fruits, organic grains, as well as organic, free-range meats and poultry and wild-caught fish.

3. Drink plenty of pure, filtered water throughout the day.
Cleansing (especially colon) and Detoxification therapy such as short fasts, elimination diets, and colonics.

4. Enteric-coated peppermint oil and aloe vera juice.

5. Soothing baths two to five nights a week, as well as alternating hot and cold water packs placed over the abdomen.

6. Use Probiotics and soil-based organisms.

7. Therapeutic juices include wheatgrass juice; cabbage, papaya, and carrot juice.

8. Stress reduction techniques, such as biofeedback, hypnosis, and meditation.

9. If you are a smoker, stop and refrain from taking aspirin or other NSAIDs.

10. Examine the possibility of withheld emotions as the cause of your symptoms and get support through emotional and physical expression, especially movement therapies such as NIA, Qi gong, Yoga or Total Integration Therapy to name a few options.

Best of health to you

My mom has IBS. She doesn't like to eat a ton of junk food and eats a lot of bananas for her IBS. I don't know how they make her feel better but they work!

I think that you should continue doing what your doing as there is no cure for IBS - just make sure that you develop a routine when it comes to eating like eating around the same time each day

e.g eating breakfast at 8.00 am - lunch at 12:30 pm and dinner at 8pm every day

my doctor gave me Zelnorm, and it works really well.

I have symptoms of IBS and I control it by eating a high fiber diet and staying away from fatty foods. You also need to learn what foods trigger your reactions and stay away from them. It is also a good that you eat smaller meals throughout the day. but more frequently. The key here is to eat more fiber and drink plenty of water.

I asked the same question, feel free to look. I know for me it's different foods at different times. It's usually greens, like lettuce, especially spinach. Dairies to such as cottage cheese & soft service ice cream. It doesn't usually hit me until the middle on the night. I guess it's different for everyone & should keep some type if food journal (someone suggested that to me) until you can figure out what triggers it. I don't get it all the time luckily, but when I do.....ouch. My doctor gave me some kind of medecine that melts on your tongue, but the problem is that I never knew when I was going to get an attack, so I stopped taking it. It's usually after the fact....at that point why bother? So, I choose to monitor what I eat. It's stoll a trial & error for me. I hope you find a happy medium. Waiting for a cure also.....take care.
