Probiotics (think acidophilus, for example) help restore the balance and production of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract. Prebiotics support the function of probiotics. Both are potentially a very good thing for IBS sufferers... and definitely something to try if you've been on antibiotics, which pretty much kill all the beneficial bacteria in your gut (yet another reason why antibiotics seem to "trigger" most of us).

Hope that helps a bit!
