Hi, I have had IBS for about 18 years, 4 years ago I added nutritional supplements to my diet and found great success. The supplements have not cured my IBS but I have a quality of life back, it's in control. I have talked to about 450 people in the past month and most people are spending so much time trying to figure out what in their diets causes the flareups. After researching IBS for many years, I have found that when the colon is spastic every food aggravates and causes bacteria buildup. Of course, some foods do trigger the IBS, but for the most part, if the colon is spastic, anything will cause a problem.

That's how I feel now. I can't eat anything. What do you suggest to stop the colon flare-ups?

Jaded - follow Heather's "what to eat when you can't eat anything" plan for a few days until your colon is less irritable. Oh, and do a search for Colin the Happy Colon just to get a laugh!!
