[QUOTE="KidDougi, post: 2433604, member: 546972"] I also have a couple of element, although not as many as you, one of which was IBS. although not formally tested for, off the back of my symptoms my GP recommended I visit the NHS IBS dietary web site. Problem was that it recommended that I cut out all the food I like. So I tried a different approach. I had heard of some connections between gut microbes and diabetes, IBS, weight gain and lots of other common issues Society seems to be suffering a lot of lately. So I tried fermented tea, ie Kombucha. I know some people make this for themselves but you need to get it right else you grow the wrong microbes. So I bought mine. I noticed an improvement in my IBS almost instantly but I would give it at least a week. I no longer get bloated and all the other undesirable symptoms of IBS have gone away too. Kombucha is an acquired taste, vinegary, [emoji37] but choosing a brand which offers different flavours helps. And the benefits far outweigh the not so pleasant flavour. Very little carbs and zero sugar, for the brand I get. Apparently all fermented out. I have previously tried those pro-biotic pills but found them to be a waist of time. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
