Julie, foods and stress don't cause IBS.

But foods can be triggers to the underlying condition.

So can your thoughts and feelings.

There is a type of brain in the gut called the enteric nervous system. There is a bidirectional communication between your brain and your gut, messages go both ways.

Your brain can have a big impact on your gut and the symtptoms and your gut can have a big impact on your brain.

This is one reson why HT has shown to work so well for some people.

You have comorbid issues along with your IBS that can effect your IBS.

I think personally its important for you to learn some of these issues.

Fear, worry, scared, anger, depressed, antisipatory anxiety, stress, anxiety all effect the gut in IBS.

This does not make it "all in the head" it means the brain can upset or help the gi tract and your symptoms.

There are physical problems in IBS.

I posted this to you before.

Modern IBS research has established IBS as a brain-gut disorder.
