Quote: I definetly recommend Acacia. If your main problem right now is gas, then I have a few suggestions:
Beano - it's a digestive enzyme which targets gas-producing foods preventing the gas in the first place, take 1 tablet per 1/2 cup 'Beano foods'
Fennel tea/seeds: if you don't like the taste of the tea, try chewing the seeds and then swallowing them with some water.
Gas-X/simethicone: taken with meals or before bed at night, this helps relieve trapped gas
Other digestive enzymes may help, but I don't have personal experience with them.
I hope you find something that helps,
Would you recommend dropping Acadia and Acidophillus with these?
I want to thank ALL of you for your posts. It makes me feel somewhat better that I am not alone. However, I think WE ALL can agree, it is absurd that for something as clear cut as IBS, they can't cure it. I personally hate GI doctors, because their purpose is to treat medical disorders. There are many more disorders more serious than IBS, yet why are they so stupid when it comes to this? If you know the way they body functions, THEN WHY can't you tell us what to do Einsteins?
They get 200k a year, and what do they do? They should be paid a commision, by sucess rate for treating IBS. They don't care. They don't have the disorder. They have the Mercedes.
