Diet For IBS - Because You’re Not A Hypochondriac

The most recommended way to treat Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a diet for IBS. IBS is a functional bowel disorder characterized by abdominal pain ( quite often severe ) and changes in bowel habits. If you are one of the many people who get these symptoms, you will not want to be called a hypochondriac as some recent news items have claimed.

This syndrome is very common and can prevent people from being involved in social and sporting activities, and causes many work absences. It is a very uncomfortable, painful and embarrassing thing to have. Of course, before you try out things to relieve your symptoms, check with your doctor to make sure you do have IBS and not some other illness.

There are quite a few different schools of thought in regard to the best diet. Here is one that may assist you. Stop all dairy foods, sugary foods and yeast ( found in bread and other foods that come from the bakery). Yeast is in beer also. Eat lots of green fruit and vegetables. Lean meat, fish and chicken is okay to eat also.

The following drink will make sure you have lots of green food. Make this for yourself in a blender. From the fruit and vegetable market, buy every green fruit, salad and vegetable you can find. Things like:

=> celery, => parsley, => baby spinach, => broccoli,

=> zucchini, => kiwi fruit, => bok choy, => avocado

Throw all your green foods into the blender, then add a little fresh pineapple to make it taste sweet. Add a little water if there are too many dry foods in the blender. Drink your "green drink" once or twice a day and it should assist your digestive system.

The above diet was the one I used for a number of years, and if I spent the day drinking and eating the above ( and not eating the stuff I shouldn't eat), my day was okay.

However, as you can imagine and may already know yourself, it was not much fun for me making "green" drinks and not being able to eat all the things I wanted to when I went out for dinner. And, if I did eat the "wrong" thing when I out for dinner, I usually ended up having a very uncomfortable time, and had to excuse myself to go for a walk or lie down in the car.

Many people are finding that a good quality nutritional supplement can relieve the symptoms of IBS. Perhaps it's because the digestive system needs more of a specific nutrient or is not getting that nutrient at all. Some people find that when taking a dietary supplement, they don't experience any discomfort at all.

For many years in Asian countries, the mangosteen was commonly used for treatments ranging a full spectrum of health concerns: inflammation, diarrhea, parasites, wounds, skin infections, burns, pain and so on. So, eating the mangosteen fruit or taking a mangosteen supplement can also alleviate your discomfort and pain of IBS.

If you do choose to take a high quality nutritional supplement, I recommend that you take it for at least one month to give your body a chance to catch up on all the nutrients it requires. If you've had IBS symptoms for a long time, your body might need a longer time than a month.

In my experience, Natural remedies such as supplements sometimes take longer to work than medicines take. However, natural remedies usually last for a much longer time than medicines because with the right nutrients, your body is getting what it needs. So, taking a nutrition supplement can solve the inconvenience and embarrassment (when going out) of having to diet for IBS.
