Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: How can I stop an IBS attack?

The peppermint capsules have no taste but can cause trouble for people with bad acid reflux. I have never had a peppermint burp from them. here is the order page 2 bottles have lasted me over a year at least. The peppermint tea is good too, but the caps are so concentrated they work better for me for upcoming attacks.
I don't remember reading about oregano. I have never heard it has good GI healing properties. Generally peppermint is best for cramping and pain, fennel for bloating, ginger for nausea, chamomile for calming.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
