I don't think this product can really hurt, but it probably won't really help either. It's based on aloe vera, and some folks find that helpful for calming the GI tract - for others, though, aloe can trigger bad diarrhea. Also, things that will help IBD (such as Crohn's and ulcerative colitis) because they have anti-inflammatory properties aren't necessarily going to do anything for IBS, which is not caused by gut inflammation. If they're from natural sources, like the aloe (or other foods that have anti-inflammatory properties like fish oil capsules, flax oil, evening primrose, etc.) they shouldn't cause harm but again, they may not do much good for IBS either.
Best,
Heather
