OK...I know this sounds too good to be true....and I know some of us here have jumped on the wagon to cut sweets and sugar out of our diet...but I have been eating something since Monday that I believe may be helping my IBS-D.
A few years ago I used to eat a cup of TCBY frozen yogurt every evening (I bought it by the quart) and my IBS-D was fairly stable when I did that. But it got pretty expensive so I quit. Well, the other day I got hungry for TCBY. I thought that maybe I shouldn't try it with the way my stomach has been lately, but I decided to do it anyway. So I went and bought a quart and every evening since Monday I have had a cup of it in the evening...and I haven't used Imodium all week. I don't know if there is actually something in it that is helping, or what...but I do feel better when I eat it regularly.

If it works, go with it I'm guessing it's a combo of a few things...probiotics in yogurt, calcium, and the relaxing effect it probably has on you...comfort food that worked for you in the past and doesn't cause anxiety. Anything that reduces stress is helpful. Enjoy your yogurt! I haven't had tcby in years. It's so good.
