IBS Diagnosis
Good evening. I have recently been diagnosed with IBS and I am struggling physically and mentally. Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated. Im taking over the counter medication and have changed parts of my diet and nothing seems to work!
What have you changed for your diet? For me diet was key. Also do you take probiotics daily? That helped me so much with symptoms. -Elizabeth (team member)
thank you for your response. I have stopped consuming dairy and have really lowered my caffeine intake ( I am a huge caffeine lover! ) I have stopped eating spicy foods also. What probiotics do you recommend? I don’t have much knowledge on probiotics, vitamins etc of course I am not a doctor but just from my personal experience eating organic when possible. Cooking with healthy fats like olive oil, avocado oil. Eating veggies steamed. Bone broth and chicken broth are always a good idea. Pumpkin soup and butternut squash soup are great too. Avoiding wheat. Processed sugars. Soda. All the processed stuff.
For probiotics I use the brand Garden of Life and have also used the brand Klaire labs. As far as vitamins it is important to know if you are deficient in any, so get blood work first. But a good, food based multi vitamin is always a good idea.
I hope this helps some.
