Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

For about 10 years I suffered from stomach problems. My stomach would just cramp and be in knots for hours. I would be back and forth to the bathroom all morning. It was so annoying and frustrating. The problem got so bad that it began to negatively affect my ability to do my job. There seemed to be no rhyme or reason to it. It didn't matter what I ate the night before, whether I ate or didn't in the morning � nothing seemed to help. I went and had a colonoscopy done in 2000 and the doctor told me that I needed to reduce my stress, exercise, and get more fiber and fruits and vegetables in my diet. That was his only prescription! Well, I had just about figured that I would be living with this the rest of my life. WRONG!

In May 2004, I started taking JuicePlus and I cannot tell you how much it has improved my health. My wife's friend sent her a packet of information about the health benefits involved in adding raw fruits and vegetables to your diet. We immediately thought, "What an amazing concept!" Because we knew that we as well as our children didn't get enough fruits and vegetables in our diets, we decided to give it a try. The literature talked about how it boosts the immune system and helps your DNA from mutating which aids in the prevention of cancer. It also spoke of how good these fruits and vegetables are for the heart and the prevention of cardiovascular problems. That was enough for us to purchase the product for our whole family.

Would you believe that soon after taking Juice Plus my stomach problems slipped away! I no longer had those cramps. I didn't go back and forth to the restroom all morning anymore. My bowels were regulated and normal. It was amazing to me! If I forgot to take Juice Plus for a day or two my stomach would flair up again. I guess the doctor was right. I needed fruits and vegetables! I will take Juice Plus for the rest of my life. Yes, the main reason is for my stomach, but that is just the tip of the iceberg. I know what it is doing for my overall health and the prevention of disease even if I don't feel that part on a daily basis
Since JuicePlus worked so well for me I knew there had to be others out in the world who suffered the same pain and cramping as I had. I had no idea I worked alongside one such person. I shared my story with a co-worker who also suffered from IBS. After about 3 months, her symptoms were also eliminated. "I feel like I have my life back" were her words when trying to explain how she felt. Since then, she has also referred a friend who suffered from sever stomach problems. So far he has seen much improvement in his stomach too!
