Reducing Symptoms: Tips and Tricks

Drinking a TON of water and staying active helps things stay more regular for me but as far as reducing symptoms it really depends on what type of IBS you have and what you are willing to consume. For me, (constipation, bloating and gas pains) Mint/Chamomile tea, activated charcoal, avoiding known food triggers, aloe vera/marshmallow root/elm bark supplements (you can get all 3 in one on amazon message me if you wanna know more)

Low FODMAP diet. It’s just my life now. No dairy AT ALL and no garlic and onions. Personally also no/low gluten for other reasons, but also seemed to help with bloating. I go symptom free for so long I sometimes even forget and then eat something triggering and will be in so much pain and have IBS attack and remember all too well why I eat so strict. It’s pretty plain the way I eat all the time, but not having extreme abdominal pain, no gas, no terrible IBS poops throughout the day, no bloat is worth it for me. I eat out once or twice a week and try to pick the healthier options/stick to Japanese restaurants (healthier in my opinion and more anti inflammatory diet friendly)

i stopped consuming dairy and honestly it’s helped a lot more, not complete cure obv but it definitely helped me a lot personally!
