    OK. All joking aside. I have IBS. No. It is not funny. Stop laughing. At one point, I was going 15 times a day. I wanted to die. Then I eliminated coffee. Duh. Anyway, after years of eliminating foods and trying this and that, I found that adding GROUND psyllium fibre to my diet regulates every kind of digestion problem I could possibly have. Everything from constipation to diarrhea. It takes the waste, gently scrapes it from the walls of the intestines [thus cleaning it], gels it [which prevents diarrhea] and makes it soft but formed [fixes constipation]. It's my poop regulator. Yes, I said poop. Tee hee and all that. I take a heaping tablespoon every single day with a scoop of whey protein powder, add COLD water, mix and drink it quickly [it turns to glop if you turn around and do something else]. It has 'cured' my IBS. If I miss even a day, I regret it. So....go buy some. It's cheap. I did use a product called Colonix for a number of years and it is slightly superior to ground psyllium, but it is 6 times the price.

    I feel your pain! I have started drinking soy milk or lactose free stuff. That has helped a lot. Otherwise its just a crappy situation!

    Really, I think this whole topic crappie. It just seems to keep running. Although, as the Brits would say, you can squeeze some cheekiness out of it. But, I think most of the answers are kind of squishy. I am sorry you could not flush out any answers on Google. Their server may be a little backed up. I am feeling a little wiped after reading all the responses. But, just to throw my opinion into the bowl, it is not worth it!

    BAHAHAHA!!!! :laugh:
