Answers:
Hello!. I also suffered IBS for many many years!. I understand your frustration and stress!.

Two things worked for me!.!.!. I do not have ANY intestinal problems whatsoever anymore!.

First thing!.!.!. increase your fiber intake!. Try eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables!. If you have difficulty eating a high dose of F&V then try Metamucil!. Use it several times everyday!.

It sounds strange because most people assume such advice would aid constipation, not chronic diarrhea!. But, it is VERY affective in controlling IBS!.

Second!.!.!. after months of consuming metamucil, I adopted a vegan lifestyle!. I consume a diet of mostly greens, vegetables and fruits!. I have never felt better as far as my tummy troubles!. I also overcame depression and anxiety!. I live my life completely free of medications or symptoms!.

If you chose to try this!.!.!. then good luck!. If it's not for you, then I hope you find something else that will work for you!.

My husband has IBS, and he drinks fiber every night, which helps!. He also avoids dairy and certain other foods that he has found sets him off!. He also makes sure to make time for a bathroom break about 6 times a day!. Just remember that when you leave the house you will always be able to find a bathroom - in a store, in mall, in a restaurant, wherever!. Just bring a pack of matches with you!Www@Answer-Health@Com
