Hello -
A new large scale study has just found that adopting three healthy behaviors can lower the risk of developing irritable bowel syndrome by as much as 42%.
Experts looked at the effect of five lifestyle factors - not smoking, quality sleep, enough exercise, healthy diet and lower alcohol consumption - on the risk of developing IBS.
Lifestyle factors have previously been identified as raising the risk of IBS, which prompted researchers to evaluate the effects of combining healthy behaviors.
Study authors noted: "Adhering to a higher number of the five healthy lifestyle behaviours is significantly associated with a lower IBS incidence in a middle-aged population."
Interestingly, the three behaviors that had the biggest individual effect on reducing IBS risk were not smoking, vigorous exercise, and getting at least seven hours of sleep a night.
Learn more about the connection between sleep and IBS.
You are not alone!
