Just Acacia and Imodium. I take 2 1/2 tbsp acacia per day (almost at my 3tbsp goal), and usually 2-3 Imodiums per week (mostly related to stressful events or restaurant eating). I also take the peppermint capsules every now and then with large meals or restaurant foods.
I actually stabilized with the diet and Acacia alone, but after 2 months I started using Imodium because I wanted to travel again. I did a 30 hour (that's each way) bus trip to Florida for a week, and 5 week backpacking around Europe tour, all free of IBS attacks.
I tried probiotics for about 2 months and didn't notice any difference. I have been thinking about trying a different brand to see if I notice a change, but mostly for my immune system and for safety while travelling.
I take Beano when I have soy products or meals with a lot of veggies, but I haven't tried any other digestive enzymes. I was a dairy-addict (my hardest trigger to give up) and have tried lactaid pills, but they didn't work, so now I just eat a ton of soy dairy-alternatives.
Oh and I just started the hypno program last week. I'm hoping to get rid of the negative IBS thoughts, and constant worrying over it. So far it's helping me sleep really well every night, which is already helping my IBS.
How are you doing with the diet?
