go for it 1 Nov 2007

By carolina

Format:Paperback

good. very comprehensive with clear / objective explanations. it is good help, talks about everything related to ibs, and you discover many things you had no idea about

unlike many other books about the subject, it does not focus on one aspect and leave the rest aside, but gives a holistic approach

if you are a sufferer, or someone you know is, my reccomendation is go for it!!

IBS for Dummies 16 Mar 2010

By Ms. J. West

Format:Paperback

As like, I am sure, the other 'Dummies' books this one written for IBS sufferers is not exception. It details in easy language what IBS is, gives great tips and advice and makes it easy to understand. Worth buying even if you are not the sufferer so that you also understand what they are going through.

Well Informed-Amazon Verified Review 19 May 2012

By pippa green

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This book explains everything u need to know about IBS written by someone who understands exactly how it feels to have this complaint-learned more from this book than the doctors could help me with-u dont have to start at the first chapter but can go to any chapter that u want to read first which i did then started at the beginning-found this book helped me a lot have not finished it yet as there are so many other details relating to your body which helps with this problem-especially how to relax and how stress is a major problem-when i pick it up i cant put it down again-worth buying as u can keep referring to it-it is larger than i thought it would be but worth the money-the only down side is that it is from American doctors giving details of USA medicines but it still fully explains everything in a language we non medical folk can understand. Im so glad I spotted this IBS for Dummies(US edition)on Amazon.

Flushing food down with water or any beverage dilutes the enzymes in the mouth and also the digestive juices in the stomach. It can also push food out of the stomach before it has a chance to be fully broken down. Drink water between meals, but only sip it when you eat. &quote;
