Title: The "Best" Diet for Irritable Bowel Syndrome


1
The "Best" Diet for Irritable Bowel Syndrome
  • Dr. Albert Snow
  • Holistic Gastroenterologist

2
  • IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a highly
    chronic condition which involves problems with
    your gastrointestinal tract.

3
  • A number of symptoms are commonplace to the
    condition, such as indigestion, constipation,
    diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and gas.

4
  • Most information about IBS will tell you that a
    proper diet is key for curing any of the
    syndromes involving inflammation of the
    intestines.

5
  • However, you do not need to be on some extreme
    diet like the Specific Carbohydrate Diet or any
    other type of diet for the rest of your life.

6
  • IBS, IBD, colitis, Crohn's, etc. is not about
    food at all. It's about the use of antibiotics
    that have damaged the lining of your intestines
    over the years.

7
  • Your diet and the food you eat have little to do
    with the causes and cures of these syndromes.

8
  • Just to be clear there is NO diet that will heal
    or cure any form of IBS, nor is there one that
    will cause it.

9
  • IBS can be cured by rebuilding the GI tract's
    mucosal tissue. However, in the meantime, you can
    manage the symptoms of your condition by not
    eating foods that will aggravate it.

10
  • As you think about your diet and what you eat,
    keep in mind these two rules for diet for
    Irritable Bowel Syndrome

11
  • 1. General diet

12
  • The rule is simple here -- eat low fiber foods
    that wont aggravate the already inflamed
    intestinal tissue.

13
  • Makes sense, right? Why would you want to choose
    a high fiber diet that would further inflame your
    intestines?

14
  • That means no raw fruit no raw vegetables no
    nuts, seeds, or corn until you get your IBS fixed.

15
  • If you persist in eating these high fiber foods,
    you will exacerbate you condition, which will
    manifest itself with symptoms like diarrhea,
    abdominal pain, mucus and bloody stools, all of
    which make your condition worse.

16
  • You will want to change to a low fiber diet as an
    initial step in curing your IBS, even before
    taking any supplements.

17
  • By doing so, you can more accurately evaluate
    your treatment needs.

18
  • 2. Use common sense

19
  • If any other food bothers you when you eat it,
    just stop eating it for the time being.

20
  • Once you have decided to move forward with
    healing your IBS, you can return to eating
    whatever you want after that point.

21
  • When you have IBS, colitis or Crohn's Disease,
    the best way to know if there is a problem with a
    particular food is if you become bloated and get
    diarrhea when you eat that food.

22
  • If this happens, simply stop eating that food.

23
  • You cannot heal any Inflammatory Bowel Disease
    with any kind of diet -- you can only slow down
    the destruction of your GI tract.

24
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome doesn't have to be a
    lifelong condition that reduces your ability to
    work, attend social events and travel. Proper
    diagnosis and treatment is essential.

25
  • Do yourself a favor - forget everything else you
    have read about diet for Irritable Bowel Syndrome
    and just follow these two simple rules to help
    you manage your IBS and then seek out a permanent
    cure.
