Hello.
Im 20 with IBS, every thing was fine before 6 months(never had stomach problems in my life) but cant forget that day when i decided to eat chicken with friends from a local shop.That fu**** my digestive system and my stomach, From that day i have ibs till today. I also used to take protien shakes(maybe that caused me IBS bcoz in my country there are many fake protien suppliments). Now i cant take protien suppliments and cant gain weight because of it. I do workout(gym) and play Football , have a active lifestyle though.Now im not able gain weight,
What should i do to gain weight and increase muscle mass?

    If your IBS is causing you to not absorb food, then it's more than IBS. I think you need to see a doctor for testing (or further testing). This seems more serious and sounds like a malabsorption issue.

    I agree with CMNVA. I think a doctor would be the best place for you to go for advice right now.
