My IBS has acted up so much that I am now at home and sometimes working from home on some projects. I am trying to get a hold on this IBS as it has been bothering me off and on since November. (aided by my GERD) So to try and help matters, I am trying to do a little homesteading. This year I have a garden and will be growing my own vegetables. I have also acquired some baby chicks which I will use for eggs. When they start hatching, I may also use them for my poultry. I did have a question about a couple of things I have read about. One of them is the use of goat milk. I have heard some people say they have a better time with goat milk or even raw goat milk as it does not contain the hormones that the store bought stuff has. Has anyone had success with goat milk?
The second thing is, is rabbit meat and duck meat ok?
I avoid read meat and pork. Does anyone else here do strict oragnic and found improvment with it?
Thanks for letting me pick your brain today!

Goat's milk has the same lactose content as cow's milk. Lactose is the main ingredient in milk that can exacerbate IBS symptoms.
Most chef's consider rabbit to white meat with as low a fat content as chicken.
Duck is a dark meat like chicken legs but it is considered safe. There are a number of recipes in the recipe index
Eating strickly organic has not been clinically shown to improve IBS symptoms but it cannot hurt.

I buy many items organic, especially the Dirty Dozen. I buy it for health reasons. If I have the spare cash, I buy even more organic, but try to buy organic for those foods with the most pesticide residue. I too grow alot of my own food.

now: stable through EFI+FODMAP dieting (no lactose/no fructose/some fructans and some polyols)
before: IBS-D(pseudo-diarrhoea), bloating, often unbearable pain esp from too much fat: Apr 2007- Dec 2010

[I've tried VSL#3 -> I could tolerate v good amounts of IF (even with less SF), it worked great (but overall I find it too expensive)]

It is white meat, low fat so it sounds fairly safe to me. I cannot buy it here so I cannot try it

after googling this:
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=bunny+rabbit&hl=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=n0qIT_T4CqWf0QXH9IjTCQ&ved=0CDgQsAQ&biw=1138&bih=537
not sure it would be psychologically possible for me to eat them anyway...
