Although no pathological or anatomical causes have been discovered, we know that certain things can trigger the unpleasant symptoms. These include emotional factors or stress, food sensitivities, drugs and even hormones. Studies have revealed that imbalances in beneficial bacteria (acidophilus and bifidus), undigested food and the presence of some parasites can also contribute to IBS.Diets that include known bowel irritants such as coffee and alcohol, and are low in fibre, but high in sugar and fats may also trigger IBS as well as leaky gut syndrome.While the cause is still unclear, there are a few things that are certain:
2.Get ActiveAn increase in exercise has been shown to be beneficial for IBS sufferers. Exercise relieves stress, which can dramatically reduce symptoms and manage the triggers associated with IBS. Regular cardiovascular training (walking, running, swimming) is not only good for the body but the mind and spirit too. Aim for 4 - 6 times a week to notice a real improvement. 3.Know Your Food Sensitivities Food sensitivities contribute to IBS. Common offenders include wheat and dairy but other possible irritants could be corn, coffee, tea and citrus fruits. Get tested for IgG food allergies or consider the elimination of Fermentable Oligo-Di-Monosaccharides and Polyols (FODMAP) foods. These are different classes of carbohydrate foods, which are poorly digested by some people, causing gas, bloating and cramping. Cutting these out of your diet can be life changing. These are a few examples of FODMAP foods:•Fructose (honey, high fructose corn syrup and some fruits such as apples)•Lactose (dairy)• Fructans (wheat, onion, garlic, inulin)• Galactans (beans, lentils, legumes)• Polyols (sweeteners containing sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, maltitol, and some stone fruits, including apricots, peaches and nectarines) 4. Chew Your Food Most of us don’t chew our food properly before swallowing but IBS sufferers have particular trouble digesting many foods. Digestive enzymes help our body to do this. Chewing every mouthful thoroughly (at least 20 times) and taking an enzyme supplement with every meal will help to prevent the fermentation of food that causes gas.5. Get the Right SupplementsAloe Vera juice is incredibly healing and helps to soothe the digestive tract. It also improves digestion and encourages the assimilation of nutrients. Acidophilus and Bifidus are beneficial bacteria that help to keep the digestive system healthy. Gut imbalances can lead to IBS and it’s this friendly bacteria that are often destroyed when we take medication or eat unhealthy foods. Herbal Teas including ginger, chamomile, peppermint and fennel all help to calm the digestive tract, and relieve bloating, gas and cramping. Fibre is one of the main supplements recommended for IBS because it works for both constipation and diarrhoea. Fibre helps to reduce intestinal toxicity, pathogenic bacteria and yeast overgrowth. It also helps to improve colon structure and tone. Psyllium seed and flaxseed fibre are both good sources that are well tolerated by most people. Slippery Elm powder can be very soothing too.6. Seek Professional Advice Treating the symptoms are essential but addressing your body’s unique set of triggers is even more important. There are many natural solutions when it comes to digestive problems, so seeking help from someone with knowledge and experience in this area can take the guess-work out of your road to recovery.
