Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: More peppermint oil--sorry!

Add to your regimine: If not taking acacia or taking 2x/day, build up the soluble acacia fiber spread THROUGHOUT the day before eating. So, if starting out, it would be, instead of taking the 1/2 teas. 2x/day, you would spread that really small worth of actually 1 teas. total throughout the day;Add 1/2 teas. every 4-5 days as per instructions, but spread out, and only until stable. That's how I worked it. It says you can sprinkle it on food instead. I put a mouthful of water in my mouth, then the amt. needed with meas. spoon, swish and swallow. I've also manually put into gel caps the amt. needed. C people can end up stablizing needing more than D people;I ended up at 3T/day total. I was pelleting BMs alternating with watery, but never not going/day constipating. Now, I get the firmer little larger stool at the beginning of the day mainly, but get skinny/not watery one thereafter 95% of the time and after first 2 main meals usually. When hormones are fluctuating, I'll get an addit. for the day, but watery BM, yet no cramping. I do use the peppermint caps/tummy tamers before each of the 3 main meals. NEVER noticed any gas from the acacia fiber..Does not cause bloating or gas..See ad.
