Thanks for the advice. I had the celiac test, but refrained from gluten for a short time before it. I'm considering a second test in the future to be sure.

I see advertisments on other IBS sites for digestive enzymes - that these will 'cure' IBS in 4 days. I notice that Heather doesn't offer any product like this, therefore, I'm thinking that this digestive enzymes may not be a good solution. I'd like to know more about this and why or why not. I think it would help me understand more.
Thanks so much - I love the Tummy fiber and Tummy Teas!

Syl, Just rereading this post and wondering if all vegetable/plant based enzymes would be a problem as you mention the Insoluble fiber in them?

It depends on whether or not the enzymes were extracted from the plant material or if they are simply contained in the ground plant material. Many digestive enzymes sold as supplements are ineffective in the human body. They are simply digested like any other protein. You might find this article interesting article
You might try Beano which is know to work and see if it works for you.
