I've been taking Prodiem caps., for about 2 weeks, with great success! No gas, no bloating--actually tummy soothing and attack decreasing. The active ingredient is calcium polycarophil, the stuff in "Equalactin." There are no added artificial sweeteners.
I found myself swinging to "A" attacks after "D" attacks, lately, and my g.i. suggested trying calcium polycarbophil.
My gut is re-stabilizing. I'm hardly using any Immodium whatsoever (and I eat tons of SF).
I guess, when I experience "A" streaks, I add some more fruit (safely prepared) to my day. Bevvy is sure right about those blueberries.
Also, I must add that my bm's are regularily well formed (as long as I lay off the raw salads and limit lettuce to less than 2 c./day).
Kate, IBS-D (most of the time), and increasingly stable.
