I was thinking about this exact thing today(probably because I just finished a good historical novel). I wondered how women dealt with those dresses and corsets etc when not feeling well. It was so funny to see this when I checked the boards.

My New GI doc tells me that 40% of the population suffers with some level of irritable bowel syndrome. But only 1% ever seek medical treatment from a speacialist. These percentages are surprising to me. I wonder if any one has studied the history of ibs. I can't help but wonder if the high incidence is in part due to our screwed up food chain. Things thst have been introduced into the chain that never should have been there and probably were not 100 years ago. I am talking about trans fats, HCFS, etc.

Any thoughts on this?
