A warm welcome to all the new posters! It's good to have you here.

Just want to make a suggestion that you check out Heathers Thread in the front of the Eating Boad titled "New folks, please read this post first"! Lot's of helpful information. It will definately help introduce you to how to make best use of this website.

In particular, she has a note about the search button.

Quoting :
"Thanks for joining us! If you're new, one of the best ways to find information on a topic is to use the "search" button at the top of the board. Choose the word you want to search for (bloating, fiber supplement, travel, restaurants, etc.) and change the date range to "all posts". This will show you all posts on the board on the topic you're interested in. The same questions tend to come up over and over again, so there is a wealth of information on the boards on many topics already. It's important to search for a topic before posting a question as this helps keep the board from getting cluttered with repetitive posts (and redundant answers).

There are ongoing posts about eating out at restaurants, traveling safely, soluble fiber supplements, lists of safe foods to buy in the US, Australia, and UK, and patient-recommended doctors who are great to their IBS patients. You can find all of these popular topics by simply searching".

It has really helped me to do a search on questions like specific Soluble Fiber supplements, specific foods, getting recipes, etc.

I know sometimes you just want an answer right away! But really, doing a search first can bring up a ton of previous answers that just may help you!

But sometimes even the search doesn't really answer the question. Believe me, I have needed to post many times because I need further information. But the search method is a good place to start.

Again, welcome, and I encourage you all to read all Heathers posts at the top of this board. They are just so helpful!
