there is more to the diet than avoiding triggers

I have a very Heather-sounding answer; a very important part of treating IBS is the prebiotic acacia and drinking enough and getting exercise. And she really stresses eating insolubles. Try to not be afraid of them; they are not on the real trigger list. I think the D types sometimes inadvertantly make the C types too afraid of insolubles. With acacia and a more balanced diet you might see improvement. (or not- who knows? )

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
