Heather advises that those with IBS should avoid dairy even if they are not lactose intolerant. I imagine that those who aren't (ie it's not an organic problem) may well be helped through hypnosis, cos for them dairy may just be a digestive stimulant that wreaks havoc, similarly to alcohol, caffeine, too much fat etc.
As the article Syl posted explains, there's a lot of unknowns regarding why hypnosis works, fact is that it does. He has also pointed out that it's not a cure as such as IBS have returned to a lot of people afterwards, years on. But that made me think that surely you can just do the course again. I can't see it doing any harm.
Well, anyhow I can't wait for the CD to arrive, am really hopeful!
-------------------- now: stable through EFI+FODMAP dieting (no lactose/no fructose/some fructans and some polyols)
before: IBS-D(pseudo-diarrhoea), bloating, often unbearable pain esp from too much fat: Apr 2007- Dec 2010
FODMAPs: http://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/072710p30.shtml
[I've tried VSL#3 -> I could tolerate v good amounts of IF (even with less SF), it worked great (but overall I find it too expensive)]
