I am new to the boards as of today... I just ordered the product on line - today! However, I do have some suggestions... believe it or not! I have just recently developed IBS - I have had colitis my whole life, but somehow, I have no symptoms of colitis anymore. Anyhow, I went through a bad break-up with my husband and it sent my GI tract into a whirlwind... and I have not recovered, but gotten worse. However, I have been fine all up until a few days ago - eating normal, drinking alcohol... now I realize that there is a problem. Anyhow, we'll see. Here are my suggestions though:
I have read a bit about tryptophan... it's an amino acid (I believe) found in some foods which essential for two main reasons - your GI Tract and your nervous system - afterall the two are so connected. So, I found out I had a tryptophan deficiency... interesting. Tryptopahn can be taken as a supplement or can be found in foods such as bananas, eggs, chicken and of course TURKEY. So, there could be a link here... I would be interested to see if by taking a supplement, you could help your symptoms of depression and your IBS...? I would talk to your health food store about this.
As for probiotics - I take one called BioK - it's fabulous! Well, it tastes gross, but it is very good for the body and the absorption of the good bacteria in your body. You can check it out at www.biokplus.com.
I hope it all works out for you... yoga can be very helpful! I am teacher, and when I used to feel sick, I would get myself to a class and allow the feeling to calm my nervous system - it was very helpful.
With understanding, jo
