How I Beat IBS

Warning, some symptoms involved in IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), may be disturbing to those unfamiliar with the condition.

How long has it been since you had a 'normal' trip to 'the john'?

The challenge started in the 80's. Having moved to an unfamiliar region, some adjustments are made easier than others. Looking back it's possible that the beginning was contaminated beef or pork. Some of the symptoms over time have been similar to that type of parasite.

The education was very slow because the progression of this condition can be extremely slow. It would be a year or more before I was convinced that more than diet or lifestyle were involved.

This went on for years, actually 20 or more.

Various Doctors treated these 'symptoms'. Some would blame diet or stress but still run tests that always came back inconclusive. Even the 'Butt-Scope' as I call it, was inconclusive which is good news for anyone concerned with their digestive tract.

Let me add here that 'Everyone over 45 should have this or similar 'scoping' done, it can save your life'. Don't wait. If you have any concerns with your digestive health a Colonoscopy can alleviate your concerns or in the worst case, catch a problem early.

One syndrome that was found to be related to the situation is 'Leaky Gut Syndrome'. Naively at first I thought that described my dilemma very well. At one point I found I had to wear panty liners in my shorts. The actual syndrome relates to a different type of leak in the intestines. For the challenge as it related to panty liners a psylium fiber laxative was found to act as a bulking agent allowing a more controlled and timed release, if you know what I mean.

The situation went on, getting slowly worse until a common link was discovered with other seemingly unrelated minor maladies, and some maybe not so minor.

Naturally I had tried Homeopathic remedies and supplements over these years figuring 'something has to work'. There were over time, hundreds of nutritional supplements tried, various potions and organic or old world remedies, many of which seemed to effect a change. The changes were usually temporary and ultimately disappointing.

Through prolonged research over years it became more obvious that this challenge may well be related to other symptoms. Most related symptoms were minor: skin problems, curious allergies, various digestive disruptions, food allergies, minor aches and pains, brain fog, chronic fatigue, dandruff even. Many symptoms were accepted as part of 'getting older'. But I'm not old yet!

For a period of time food allergies became quite challenging. They eventually led to 2 years of allergen treatments using hypodermic needles. I had actually become allergic to everyday foods. Allergies to corn, wheat, rice, and dairy products mean there are few meals that you can eat without disturbing effects.

The research eventually brought me to develop sites and article repositories to bring this collected information together for access from one place. Many other sites describing seemingly unrelated symptoms can be accessed through these resources.

Our self-education continues.

I eventually began a regimen using some of the solutions explained on these sites, some in a daily regimen and some as needed. You can benefit from my long trial and error education avoiding the 'dead ends' and 'false starts'.

The first step is an intestinal purge. This something most 'Western Types' have put off for far too long anyway. Following the purge a comprehensive attack on the underlying pathology and then the regimen shows you how to maintain your newly restored health and energy with its new possibilities.

Some of these supplement and nutritional programs require a membership, but don't require a purchase.

Check with your Physician and if acceptable to them, the regimen will have you feeling better than you thought you could feel again in a few months.

You will be able to maintain this new found level of health easily once attained.

P. S. It's time to take your life, energy and social life back. Are You Ready?

P. S. S. This is the First Step to your new outlook. Don't deny yourself the good health that you remember.
