Book Reviews of the A New IBS Solution
Customer Review: Possible IBS solution, but there are other causes of IBS.
Summary: 3 Stars
I was diagnosed with IBS about a year ago. I am not a doctor, but I have an extensive biology background and my husband is an RN. I tried this book's recomendation of antibiotics, but they helped only for a little while. I was depressed to say the least.
With my husbands urging I had been keeping track of what I ate and what increased my symptoms, and noticed that corn was a trigger for me. Now I am not saying that corn would cause it for everyone, what I am saying is that there may be a food trigger association with IBS. When I stopped eating anything that had corn or corn derivatives in it I felt better. When I ate things with corn I felt sick within a few hours or less. I have talked with my GI doc and he has said that there can be a food relationship to IBS. If this book does not work for you, try another avenue, don't give up. IBS is a terrible disease, but I am symptom free for two months by staying off my trigger food.
I gave this book only three stars since there are other alternatives that this book does not go into. I have talked with other IBS patients that are sensitive to wheat and avoid it like the plague to feal better. This book may have a newer solution to IBS, but not the only one.
