Extractions: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), also called spastic colon, is a chronic (long-lasting) disorder of the colon, or large intestine. It is the most common gastrointestinal disorder. It affects women twice as often as men and usually begins in early adult life. Although the disorder can cause much distress, it is not serious and does not lead to serious disease. Irritable bowel syndrome is not a disease but a functional disorder, which means there is no sign of disease when the colon is examined by x-ray or other tests. The cause of IBS is not fully understood. Most symptoms of IBS are probably related to abnormal muscle movement or spasm of the lower part of the colon. Sometimes the spasm delays the bowel movement. At other times it may lead to more rapid passage of the bowel movement, resulting in diarrhea. Attacks may be triggered by a specific food or by stress or depression because muscle movement in the colon is partly controlled by the nervous system. What are the symptoms?

Extractions: Dear Helping son, Irritable bowel syndrome, also known as irritable or spastic colon, mucus colitis, or nervous bowel, is a the nation's current #1 stomach disorder. It is characterized by a disruption of the normal pattern of muscular contractions that move waste through the intestines. The result is either diarrhea or constipation or alternating bouts of both. Other symptoms include abdominal pain or swelling, feelings of excessive fullness, gas, painful bowel movements, indigestion, heartburn, and nausea. Since these symptoms can occur with other disorders, diagnosis by a physician is important. Irritable bowel syndrome usually develops in late adolescence or early adulthood, and affects twice as many women as men. It does not lead to cancer, does not require surgery, is not caused by any known physical abnormality, and is not the same as inflammatory bowel disease a much more serious disorder. However, it is a chronic disorder and is more difficult to cope with than the occasional bout of diarrhea or nervous stomach that most people experience from time to time. There are a number of treatments that may help; most should be applied with the advice of a doctor. Antispasmodics may be prescribed to control diarrhea, tranquilizers for temporary relief of anxiety, and bulk laxatives (high in fiber) or stool softeners to relieve constipation, if necessary. If symptoms persist, some doctors may suggest some form of psychotherapy. Though no food or category of food is a known or even suspected culprit, there's no harm in watching your diet, and if certain foods seem to set off symptoms, try avoiding them. A high-fiber diet (fruits, vegetables and whole grains, taken with plenty of fluids) is known to promote normal bowel function.
