I have IBS with constipation, bloating, pain, and gas. I take the Acacia fiber, and it works wonders for the constipation and greatly reduces the bloating, pain, and gas. However, I do still occasionally have those symptoms even though I watch what I eat. I want to try the Peppermint Oil Capsules, but my husband is worried. I am nursing our 7-month-old son and my husband says he read online somewhere that women who are pregnant or nursing shouldn't take the Peppermint Oil Capsules. Is that true? Can I take the capsules without harming my nursing son? When we get pregnant again, can I take the capsules while pregnant? Are there side effects or risks? If so, what are they? Thanks for your help!
