Pages: 1 peppermint/caraway for ibs       #191312 - 07/03/05 06:13 PM Edit Reply Quote mike28 Reged: 07/03/05 Posts: 13 i was wondering if peppermint and caraway is good for dihhrea or constipated ibs, also if it slows down or speeds up intestinal motility, i know its an antispasmatic but will it slow things down and make constipated ibs worse? also thoughts on taking psyllium and flaxseed? i have had dihhrea dominet ibs for the past few months and the peppermint and carray worked good but now i have constipated ibs so will it slow things down and make the constipation worse? thanx mike Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: peppermint/caraway for ibs       #191373 - 07/04/05 12:36 AM Edit Reply Quote Linz Reged: 09/01/03 Posts: 8242 Loc: England Read the diet guidelines again...or get "IBS: The First Year" and read that. Peppermint is mentioned alot and Caraway is mentioned in the book. Or do a search on here. Psyllium is a SFS, but a harsh one...are you not taking a SFS? They're pretty much essential for A's. Do a search on flax. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1
