IBS with constipation.

Answer by sidekick ya face
I have had IBS since I had my gallbladder removed. I haven’t really found any medicines that work. I’ve tried so many I can’t even remember the names. I’m not really sure what type of IBS you have [ there's one with frequent constipation, one with frequent diarrhea & one with both ] but if you have the one with frequent diarrhea, try eating greens with your meals. Lettuce, spinach, kale, things like that.

-EDIT-
In that case, have you tried stool softners? Maybe some prune juice. Miralax works wonders from what I’ve heard.

1. See a physician because this can be a symptom of a poorly functioning digestive system and there may be a cause outside of your control.
2. Try yogurt – any kind is better than none but the ones for digestive health or are less sweetened are best – just yogurt and fruit rather than corn sweeteners and gelatin.

Question by birdwoman1: Are there any natural remedies for a systemic fungal/yeast infection?
I already know about yogurt and probiotics. What other things I should be incorporating?

This is NOT for specific treatment of a vaginal yeast infection, rather an overgrowth of fungus throughout the body. Are there certain foods, vitamins, or supplements that are beneficial?

I have tried all the meds docs have prescribed,including Zelnorm.Nothing works.Though a cure would be nice,I’m just looking for something to relieve the pain and discomfort,at least enough to let me have somewhat of a normal life.My type of IBS is with constipation,not diarrhea.

question about herbal remedies for someone to answer?

Alan — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 05:28:09 +0000

I have a preschooler and she is always getting sick from her classmates. I have been sick 4 times in the last 6 months. Do any herbal remedies actually work? I’m thinking either emergen-C or probiotics. I need something to boost my immunity. I already eat healthy, work out regularly and get plenty of sleep.
