Question:
What dietary changes have you made that have improved your case of IBS? Submit Your Comment
At age 64, I have been experiencing difficulties with my digestive tract for at least 25 years. I have undergone every test possible to determine any underlying factors as well as taking medications to calm the digestive tract. Finally, all the doctor concurred that it is IBS-D (irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea) that is causing my difficulties. Basically, it"s what I eat, when I eat, and how much I eat. A low gluten diet (almost gluten free), eating small meals, avoiding late night dinners (the hardest if you want to eat out), and limiting spicy and greasy foods to a real minimum, seem to have controlled my symptoms most of the time. It isn"t easy, but worth the effort.
I have increased the amount of fruit by great extent which has improved my IBS (irritable bowel syndrome).
The foods that usually make my symptoms worse are dairy products especially cheese in any form; also tomato sauce, beef and gravies.
