Can you answer thizdaniel’s question about IBS?:

I have to go take a bowel movement about 4 times a day maybe even more. I have abdominal cramps and some bloating. For a couple of weeks now i completely changed my diet and i now eat brown rice with vegetables and i stay away from anykind of junkfood i also have begun to exercise everyday for an hour. My stools seem to get a little hard but i still have some unusual bowel movments and cramps. If i keep on living a healthy lifesyle when will IBS stop?

    IBS Feedback: I came across this great product for weight loss (all nautral) and it was excellent for me (it’s a detox colon cleanse). Together with a good diet and exercise I am finally happy with my body and the way I look. You should check this product at , they have a free trial and you only pay $4.95 shipping and handling. A must!

    IBS Feedback: Well, IBS is a diagnosis, which is made after exclusion of all other possibilities.

    How old are you? What’s the stool color? Stools are lose? Pains (cramps) are in any particular spot in abdomen? Any particular food (fat or dairy…) is triggering your bms, or this is not connected with the type of the food? You’ve changed the diet before or after these symptoms?

    Rice + vegetables both together contain a lot of fibers, so this may be a reason for bulky or frequent stools.

    Long term lose stools are often in parasitic intestinal infection. Diagnosis is with stool test for parasites.

    Cramping may simply arise from a combination of constipation and bloating. Bloating is from fibers decomposition and from sugars: glucose, fructose (fruits), lactose (dairy), maltose (beer).

    If you can answer above q. I may give more info.
