If they are was hoping to take to work with me...ibs so bad today and I refuse to take tylenol or cold medicine in fear of anything upsetting my ibs more.
is ground ginger in hot water safe? is there any IF in the ground ginger? I wanted to make tea because it said it was good for cold. Ginger Tea:
1 cup of water
1 teaspoon of ground ginger
or should I use regular gingertoot and put a chunk in hot water?

I don't know about Ricola. Perhaps look for a drop that contains menthol but no hfcs, fructose or artifical sweetners. By the way - tylenol with no other cold ingredients is not likely to bother IBS.
Have fun at work

They look fairly safe. You will have to give them a try.
Good luck

I prefer to make ginger tea out of a peeled chunk of ginger boiled in water for a minute and steeped for a long time. then drink and add more water to the ginger chunk.
I use ricola all the time.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
