Unfortunately Caffeine is a trigger. And there really is no safe alternative that I know of that will give you the same kick. Herbal teas and water are really the best things to drink with IBS. I used to drink a cappucino every morning and run to the potty right after I got it down. And I would feel crappy for the rest of the day. So, now I go with a cup of Tummy Mint tea in the morning instead and tell myself that the hot liquid alone is enough to wake me up and get me going.

I also have been feeling run down lately and the ladies here tell me lots of water and exercise will increase energy. So this may help for you, I can't say since I am just starting a exercise routine. But it can't hurt either!

Also you should check into Heather's diet and a daily fiber supplement and read up on the different types of fiber on this site.

Good Luck,
Christie
