Here are a couple of things you might consider.

The fourth ingredient in Ultra Inflamx Plus 360 is fructose which is not IBS friendly. Strange - on the label it says "This product contains no high fructose corn syrup." It contains something much worse - pure fructose

The second ingredient is rice bran. Rice bran is mostly insoluble fiber. This product contains 4 grams of fiber most of which is going to be insoluble fiber from the rice bran. Rice is a cereal grain and cereal bran is known to exacerbate IBS of all types.

UltraDophilus DF is simply acidophilus and it contains milk. This probiotic has not been shown to be effective for IBS. It is good as a general health probiotic.

Although you will take a homepathic dose aloe is never recommended for IBS. See Heather's newsletter on "Aloe vera and IBS".

You might want to try introducing these supplements one at a time each for a few days and see if you have an flare-ups before you introduce the next one.

Good luck
