Hi,congrats to your daughter for eliminating dairy. That has been one of the best solutions for me(although I miss it). I have IBS-C and my main complaint is gas also. Once I got the C under control and changed my diet, the gas has been a world better. I take Citrucel every day or the Acacia Fiber and now I eliminate every day. I have substituted things for other things and eat what I can and like and dont worry about what other people think, cuz its my body and I have to NOT be in pain. Shes gotta get herself on a regime of what she likes and can eat safely and the pain will go away, trust me, I must have had IBS since Im born and Im 55 now. The diet is a low fat diet and actually I lost weight in the beginning. She also HAS to snack all day (every few hours on something with soluble fiber) I eat alot of luna bars and pretzels,nature valley honey and oats bars,homemade breads from the book, bagels,bananas etc. I also had severe reflux but hardly know its there eliminating onions,garlic, dairy, red meat, high fats. Good Luck, let her know we are here to help her. She can talk to any one of us at any time by posting and she will have success once she decides that NOT being in pain is IMPORTANT to her!!!!! Happy Holidays!!!
