Wouldn't it be best to simply respond with something like "Perhaps this link might be of interest to you"??? rather than filling pages of information into the actual technical information about the whys of the problem in another's post?
Some people simply need some sympathy and a place to start feeling better with some basic information about overcoming symptoms. People like myself don't need lectures, just common sense as to the tried and true ways to get back on track and stay there with simple dietary and lifestyle changes.
I admit that I am female and 'right-brained', meaning I have to go through a process of communication and sorting out that 'left-brained' others who want to delve into how my problem came to be. This doesn't matter to me at this point, I'm only seeking relief from some very painful symptoms in the present which relate to simply eating healthy and nutritious foods to sustain my life force and go from there.
I've asked you not to respond to my posts, and I would very much appreciate it if you would respect that. Lack of respect causes stress, and can also be a trigger for IBS. I know, as I've had a lifetime of this and now am learning to choose my friends and to whom I listen to at appropriate times.
I'm sorry and apologize if this wound's your ego, yet I DO have to take care of myself in practical ways and ways that work for me. I'm not responsible for anyone else's feelings. Feelings are not facts.
