I was thinking of buying the peppermint capsules on this site, for those times when I'm eating out and don't want an IBS attack in public. I can handle the discomfort at home. However, which are the better ones to take. I see the pepp caps help the gallbladder and bile. Well, I have no gallbladder,(or even my appendix). Yeah, I know I'm a half empty walking torso.

Are the pepp caps the better ones to buy or are there others? All suggestions are welcomed.

P.S. I know I ask alot of questions. That's what happens when your a Private Detective.

Peppermint caps mostly stop my gas and my spasms from being obvious, if I eat a trigeer I still get D.. so I use immodium to stop the D... but for less gas (and nicer smelling gas per DH) I use the caps.. I bought them in a local grocer because I was having a major attack due to stress and didn't have any... and they work so well I am ordering them because they are MUCH cheaper that way.
