If you happen to live in a city where there are specialists who understand IBS, you are fortunate. I happen to live in a rural are where no such thing exists.
I do believe in Heather's products as a means of calming the gut down, then one needs to go from there to expolore their own food sensitivities. It's a trial and error thing that does not necessarily require diagnostic tests that seniors living on a very small and fixed income need to bear the outrageous cost of, and stress out about that.
There are answers!... and they DO vary from person to person. The end result may be the same, though the dietary 'triggers' DO seemingly differ from person to person. Stress is a known trigger for a number of medical problems.
For me, pumping the soluable fiber helps significantly. I have no vested financial interest in Heather's products, though have found them to be extremely helpful in stabilizing and staying on tract.
In reality my blood pressure has dropped with more soluable fiber, and so has my cholesterol count! Rather amazing, don't you think? Apparently these things are all somehow related and I'm so very grateful for the improvements.
Thank you for your personal input.
