Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I started doing everything that Heather had stated in her books for IBS and I began to see significant improvement. I would say that I was at about 70% better and it felt MUCH better. I still did have problems though but through diet I was doing much better. Then one day I ran across a video on Goji and its effects on the body and it's cells and was sold. Here is the video if you are interested.

Now I work at health food store so I've known about Goji but doubted it would help with IBS. I tried it because of what I saw in the above video and from reading about it in general. I didn't start taking it expecting it to help my stomach. I didn't know what to expect but knew that I would become healthier in some way.

I began taking it on a Saturday and Sunday morning I woke up and noticed that I didn't wake up with the same feeling as I normally do. I normally feel tense and my stomach feels sorta "irritated". This probably the mental mindset I have adopted over years with IBS and some of the symptoms of IBS in general. My stomach issues have just about entirely resolved. I'm 98% better with Goji. I feel less stressed, happier, my skin looks better, I overall just feel more positive, and more energy. I feel much happier and without having stomach problems, that helps a ton too. I have 2 bowel movements a day now whereas in the past I would struggle to have 1 every other day. I'm more sociable and joke around more because I feel so much better. I can't believe that it would help IBS but it has. I'm so amazed.

I'm not trying to sell this to anyone. I'm just trying to share my experience I've had with it. I'm not saying it will help your IBS because I don't think there even any studies on for IBS. All I know that is has helped me greatly in all aspects of life, especially IBS. I would highly recommend trying it and am willing to answer any questions anyone has though. I know what IBS is like and I want to share this with you because if can make you feel better then I'm ecstatic. If anyone has tried it please let me know. I would love to hear if it has/or has not helped.
