Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

but I will speak up if I think some post or information was confusing. I do have a passionate dislike of HFCS because I note that those countries like the US that use it so much have much higher obesity and diabetes and other health problems than countries that use more unprocessed, let's call it, forms of sweeteners. I therefore think it is a travesty to put HFCS in diet or weight loss foods. I also tend to believe in the purposeful distribution of erroneous information by the powers that be where money is concerned. I don't trust the information we are given by government sources on high profit items like HFCS. We see how much has been spent to cover global warming and how many scientists were paid off to say what the powers that be want them to. So I am wary about foods like HFCS or aspartame and naturally want people to stay away!

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!
