					<description>I was diagnosed with SIBO a week ago.  I have started a 10 days worth of Xifaxin with Align much like someone above me has.  I am now 5 days on the drug.  I don't know if its helping.  My stomach is very delicate since i started taking this anti-biotic.  We will see how i feel once im off it.</description>

					<description>Thanks for the post. My partner and i have generally observed that many people are wanting to lose weight since they wish to look slim plus attractive. Even so, they do not generally realize that there are more benefits for losing weight additionally. Doctors insist that obese people suffer from a variety of ailments that can be instantly attributed to their particular excess weight. Fortunately that people who're overweight plus suffering from various diseases are able to reduce the severity of their own illnesses simply by losing weight. You possibly can see a continuous but marked improvement with health if even a moderate amount of fat reduction is achieved gywl512.</description>

					<description>Has anyone ever tried dirt?  It is found in the book &quot;Restoring your Digestive health&quot; by Dr. Jordan Rubin and Dr. Joseph Brasco.  I ordered Clay sonne's #7 detoxificant liquid.  I received it today in the mail.  I am wondering how well received it is in the IBS community.

Thank you.</description>

		<title>Comment on What Can Be Done About Irritable Bowel Flatulence? by Susan</title>

					<description>Yes, it is a bit of a contradiction. Soluble fiber IS good for IBS because it forms a soft gel-like substance that moves easily through the intestines reducing episodes of both diarrhea and constipation. The downside is this substance can cause an increase in flatulance.

Here\'s a quote from the The National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse (NDDIC) website - &lt;a href=\&quot;http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/gas/index.htm\&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/gas/index.htm&lt;/a&gt; about soluble fiber and gas.

\&quot;Many foods contain soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber dissolves easily in water and takes on a soft, gel-like texture in the intestines. Found in oat bran, beans, peas, and most fruits, soluble fiber is not broken down until it reaches the large intestine, where digestion causes gas.\&quot;</description>

					<description>Does this mean soluble fiber supplements, which are recommended by most physicians, really isn't a good idea for IBS since soluble fiber increases gas?</description>

					<description>This is totally contradictory to what Heather Van Vorous suggests in her Eating for IBS book and website. Interesting.

She stresses Soluble fiber in the diet. 

It's both interesting and confusing to read an opposing suggestion to help prevent gas.

Maybe this is why the Eating For IBS diet gives me so much more gas!</description>

					<description>This is the key to many IBS suffering patients.  I know.... because this information has changed my life!  I now believe that I have SIBO that is causing IBS type symptoms. 

The problems like severe bloating and gas have been present since I was a young child and I am now 33 years old.  It seemed that in the past no one believed that I really had a problem and my stomach and digestive problems were chalked up to IBS.  My new doctor tried me on Xifaxin followed by Align.  (antibiotics followed by probiotics).  It worked and I was symptom free!

However, when I stopped the treatment, the bacteria returned.  Today I went back to see my doctor and started taking the Probiotics again.  I will take these Probiotics (good bacteria) forever.  

I know that Align works and now I am on a Probiotic called Flora-Q.  Align you can buy online or over the counter.  The Flora-Q is a prescription.

If your doctor treats you with the antibiotics and probiotics, just know that symptoms will return if you do not continue the Probiotics.  I learned this the hard way.  However, I can't complain.  This is the first time in all my years of suffering that there is hope and I know what I have.

					<description>Hi Denise - I am unable to give individual advice I'm afraid. However when it comes to goji berries/juice it would be good to do some research. There appears to be arguments both for and against the benefits of goji juices/berries. I would be interested to hear how you got on if you chose to go ahead and try your sister's product.</description>
