Is there any alcohol and/or mixers considered safe to drink with IBS-D?

  1. Hi

  2. This is a tough question since everyone reacts to food so differently. As far as my personal experience, I tend to do well with vodka or rum. Occasionally I do a red wine, but I find wine can be iffy for me in flaring my symptoms.

    I definitely stay away from any "complicated mixed" drink. If there is more than one alcohol I stay away from it. And too much sugar or juices is a no for me. Also beer, is a big no no, always.

    Overall, I rarely drink and limit to special occasions. I hope this helps some.
