Irritable Bowel Syndrome you can win! Irritable Bowel Syndrome A Natural Approach Irritable Bowel Syndrome affects the rate at which the contents of the bowel move and symptoms include abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, bloating, rectal discomfort, headaches, backaches, depression, fatigue, weight loss or weight gain etc. People diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome can have symptoms, which vary greatly. This in part can be accounted for by individual eating habits, lifestyle, food allergies or intolerance to dairy products. Treatment Irritable Bowel Syndrome can be treated effectively by a number of natural and alternative therapies. It is important that a doctor or other health professional diagnose IBS since other very serious conditions have similar symptoms. Several natural approaches to relieve Irritable Bowel Syndrome are: increased dietary fiber, elimination of food allergies and intolerances, the use of botanicals and the treatment of stress. Fiber supplementation Extra fiber will help normalize bowel movements.

Information is based on research by the Category Health Conditions and Diseases irritable bowel syndrome......Karl Hempel, MD irritable bowel syndrome. Two thirds of the patients are female.Etiology The exact cause of irritable bowel syndrome is not known. http://www.tfn.net/HealthGazette/ibs.html

The Health Gazette Karl Hempel, M.D. Irritable Bowel Syndrome Introduction Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS) is a illness characterized by intermittent abdominal cramps and constipation with alternating periods of diarrhea. Frequently the patient will notice mucus mixed in with the stool, but there should be no blood. It is estimated that over 20 million people have IBS. Two thirds of the patients are female. Etiology The exact cause of irritable bowel syndrome is not known. In the past it used to be called spastic colitis or just colitis. These terms are actually incorrect since it is not a true inflammation of the bowel wall. It is said to be made worse by stress, although I frequently see it in people that deny any stress whatsoever. One theory is that it is a result of inadequate fiber in modern day diets. Over the years our colons or large intestines evolved to handle a large amount of fiber. In the last 100 years fiber has been eliminated from our diets through the processing of foods. This lack of fiber causes irregular contractions of the large intestines. Symptoms The usual symptoms are alternating diarrhea and/or constipation associated with abdominal cramps. The symptoms will get worse if you eat poorly as we frequently do while on vacation or out of town. Periods of stress seem to worsen the symptoms. The cramps can be located in any part of the stomach. Sometimes the cramps are severe enough to cause a visit to the emergency room. There are many different degrees of severity. There may just be an occasional mild episode, to a debilitating illness that causes frequent absenteeism from work. It is important to realize that this illness will not shorten your life. It is more of a nuisance like a headache.

Symptoms Diagnosis ... Additional Readings Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder of the intestines that leads to crampy pain, gassiness, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Some people with IBS have constipation (difficult or infrequent bowel movements); others have diarrhea (frequent, loose stools, often with an urgent need to move the bowels); and some people experience both. Sometimes the person with IBS has a crampy urge to move the bowels but cannot do so. Through the years, IBS has been called by many names, including colitis, mucous colitis, spastic colon, spastic bowel, and functional bowel disease. Most of these terms are inaccurate. Colitis, for instance, means inflammation of the large intestine (colon). IBS, however, does not cause inflammation and should not be confused with another disorder, ulcerative colitis Any questions or comments?

Various intestinal disorders produce symptomsthat are very much like those of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). http://www.ccfa.org/medcentral/library/basic/ibs.htm

Home News Updates Medical Library Research Information ... Glossary IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME (IBS) Various intestinal disorders produce symptoms that are very much like those of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). One of these is irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is sometimes mistakenly called "spastic colon" or "mucous colitis." These incorrect terms have caused considerable confusion. "Colitis" refers to inflammation of the large intestine, or colon. This is, of course, the key characteristic of ulcerative colitis. Crohn's disease also may cause inflammation of the colon, as do some infections. But IBS does not cause any inflammatory process in the body. Because this destructive inflammation is absent in IBS, it is a much less serious condition. Unlike IBD, IBS does not cause harmful complications. It does not require treatment with powerful medications, such as steroids or immunosuppressives, or lead to surgery. People with IBS are seldom hospitalized. They are no more likely to develop IBD than the general population. Unlike persons with long-term ulcerative colitis, they are not at higher risk for colon cancer. IBS can, however, be very painful and can severely affect a person's quality of life. According to the International Foundation for Bowel Dysfunction (IFBD), IBS affects at least 10-15% of adults, and is second only to the common cold as a cause of absenteeism from work.

Over 15 years of solid scientific research has demonstrated hypnotherapy as an effective, safe and inexpensive choice for IBS symptom alleviation. Hypnotherapy routinely produces positive results in over 80% of the people who use it. It has been so overwhelmingly successful for IBS symptom alleviation that Adriane Fugh-Berman, MD, chair of the National Women's Health Network in Washington, DC, says that hypnosis should be the treatment of choice for IBS cases which have not responded to conventional therapy. The first thing is to learn about hypnosis itself, but also to learn about hypnosis for IBS. It has been researched clinically for the last fifteen years and shown to be an effective treatment for the majority of those with "classic" IBS symptoms.
