Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | My tips for you, sweetsierra

Hi and welcome! I am 25 years old and my IBS started in September of 2006.

At the beginning I used to belch after everything I put in my mouth, even water. When I got my IBS under control it went away but my gas is worse than ever now. I just found out that I'm allergic to Beano (rash) and now I don't know what to do.

Ok, some tips for you.

Cramps: heating pad, painkillers don't help me;
Gas: so far peppermint and ginger tea, very hot, sip slowly;
Dairy: completely illiminate, substitute with soy;
No fried, spicy, fatty foods, caffeine, alcohol or pop;
Veggies: clean out seeds and peel the skin when eating;
Drink plenty liquids when eating so it will go down easy;
Avoid large meals, eat small meals every 2-3 hours;
Always have low fat/sugar snacks with you;
Order Heather's fiber, does wonders with pain;
Always safe: oatmeal, mild soups, dry toast/engl.muffin, hot herb tea, banana.

Good luck and email for more questions (email under profile)
