This is wat I eat,I eat tuna in water from a can,tostitos corn chips,heather's summer baked chicken recipe without the peaches,orange glazed chicken,chicken rice soup,jennio-turkey bacon,hamburger,sausauge and hot dogs(are all these safe?) I make lemon glazed sticky bread.I drink water and rice milk. It seems as if wat i eat doesnt' matter much cuz my ibs seems to respond the same. I am able to eat cheese,candy,mcdonalds and feel the same when i eat the food im supposed to..it doesn't seem to help when i cut all the bad stuff out.

I can't help you with the enzyme thing, but I just have a few thoughts on what you are eating.

You need to give the diet time. You said that it doesn't seem to help when you cut all the bad stuff out, well how long have you tried? There are people on the board who have taken months to become stable. The diet doesn't work overnight – you have to ignore all those testimonials that pop up on the homepage of this site with people saying that the diet changed their lives within a matter of days, or even weeks. Those people are the exception, not the rule.

And hot dogs and sausages are not all safe. Most of them are very high in fat. I buy the Schneiders reduced-fat hotdogs, they only contain 0.3 grams of fat each, so they are virtually fat free. I seem to tolerate them quite well!

Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
