I'm a newbie to the board! Have had IBS for as long as I can remember and am really interested in doing something about it. I've read Heather's books and have picked up some helpful advice. One major question: I made the Pumpking Apple Spice Bread and it was delicious (my finacee loves it) however, it has given me terrible heartburn. I suffer from acid reflux and take Nexium everyday. Has anyone else had this issue? I think the bread may be too spicy for me. I'll look on the board for other safe snack ideas. I'm really looking forward to spending some time on the boards. I'm getting married in November and I certainly can't have a flair up on wedding day!!!! Have a good day everyone!

Welcome! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. A lot of people here have acid reflux (is that a coincidence?)and have reactions to spices such as cinnamon. As for the pumpkin bread just cut back or eliminate some of the spices and try it again. There are some terrific recipes on this site and I'm getting better at converting most regular recipes into IBS safe ones. Some flops but getting better. Have a great day and hang around these boards to get lots of great info.

Welcome! I'm sort of new too! I don't have the reflux, so can't help you there. I have enjoyed this forum and I think you will too! I use Heather's Acacia, and LOVE the tea! I need to start trying some more of the recipes, cause I'm getting tired of the same ol stuff.

Congratulations! And I'm a newbie also. I'm 1 week old. But I've been glued to this board. It has helped tremendously. I do have acid reflux and have been prescribed Nexium also. Although I try not to take it too much. I kindausedto watch what I ate. But now, I'm really watching what I'm eating and taken the advice from the others on this board, I'M 6 DAYS COFFEE FREE! Which was a major contributor to the AR. I find the peppermint tea really helps me with the heartburn.
