How have your IBS symptoms changed over time?
Have your symptoms got better or worse? Looking back, do you see a connection between your symptoms and diets or treatments that worked for you? What were they? What did you learn about managing your IBS?
Over time my symptoms have improved. Changing my diet was the biggest change I did that made me feel better.
Eating less processed foods. Understanding the health benefits of food and eating foods that improved my gut flora.
Concentrating on veggies, fruit, organic protein and fermented foods was huge. Taking probiotics but also eating foods that encouraged the good bacteria in my gut to multiply. Fermented foods are at the top of the list for that.
Over time, I have just gotten smarter about my diet and understanding that for my personal journey with IBS, my diet is everything.
