This is a spin off topic from the eczema and IBS talk. It got me to thinking and wondering. I know I am probably being silly or hopeful or whatever. But I can't help considering how food is grown and animals are raised nowadays. Could it be possible that IBSers are reacting to what's on or put in or altered in the food? And that the reason there are so many diverse reactions (aside from the fact that each persons immune system is different) is that there are so many different possibly unsafe ways of treating food going on? And I know that for us organic is better, but heck that is where they get ya. If you are on a budget raising a family who can afford to go mostly organic? I sure can't. I am sorry for sounding a bit harsh but it seems to me that it's the people who lose their health while others make money. I truly hope I didn't offend anyone.....I am just totally curious as to what others think of this?????

I've wondered the same thing! My doctor recommended a book to me called "Friendly Food" and it said some of the same things, that a lot of people react to the toxins in food. Some are natural, most are not. And I totally get the can't afford it thing. With 3 kids and a minimum income I'm lucky if I can afford the basics let alone paying double to get organic! Some of the markets here are good for fruit and veg but all other organic produce is off the charts in price!
