no problem at all with hot spices. i'm ibs-d. matter of fact, the *only* restaurants i can go to safely are indian restaurants. lots of curry and spicy foods - yum. of course, maybe because i eat soooo much rice (the best stuff on earth for ibs-d) with the food there, that's why it doesn't bother me.

Many spicy foods that are not prepared using IBS-safe methods can cause attacks in an IBS'er. Also, there are many high fat, obviously "unsafe" spicy foods, i.e. sausages, that would cause an attack in an IBS'er. Many restaurant versions of spicy dishes are loaded with fat and triggering ingredients (i.e. ghee in traditional Indian cuisine).
Kate, IBS-D.

As long as the food is low in fat and when you think about it hot foods are often fatty, greasy foods.
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
