Re: IBS and Fibromyalgia       06/03/05 03:24 AM Edit Reply Quote Linz Reged: 09/01/03 Posts: 8242 Loc: England I once read that everyone with Fibromyalgia either has IBS or is going to develop IBS. NOTE - that doesn't apply the other way round! Fibro-diets recommend avoiding acid producing foods. Most fibro triggers (caffeine, alcohol, dairy, etc) are also IBS triggers so this diet is great for that. I'd also recommend she restricts the amount of sugar she eats (sugar crashes are a nightmare with fibro) and that she makes sure she gets lots of (safe) protein. That's all I do. If I eat triggers, sugar or not enough protein, I get fibro-ey. Oh...if she's not already, she should really be taking a Magnesium Malate supplement (almost all fibromites are deficient in Magnesium and Malic Acid). Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
