[QUOTE="MrsA2, post: 2629195, member: 521715"] I'm a bit late to this thread as I've been away, but I'm another one who found low carbing has cured my IBS. I haven't had an instance of ibs in the 3 years since diagnosis. With hindsight I think my gut was reacting badly to the carbs/sugars. I used to think it was lactose or stress but now I realise that I used to eat carby comfort foods thinking they were safe ibs wise but in fact my gut was just trying to get rid of them! [USER=577263]@netmasters[/USER] please don't get in the vicious cycle of taking laxatives to correct for bad (for you) foods. I manage my digestive transit by adding a tablespoon of milled seeds, either linseed, flax or chia, to 10% fat greek yoghurt with no more than 6 raspberries or 3 strawberries. This daily, keeps me regular. If anything throws me off then I might increase the seeds by a tablespoon or 2 until things move again. Once I'm back to normal I can now skip the seeds for a few days. My gut, my IBS, is sooo much better for going very low carb [/QUOTE]
