Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) creates much discomfort for those that experience the symptoms causing havoc within the large intestine (colon). The symptoms include, bloating, gas, cramps in the abdomen with pain, constipation and diarrhea. IBS presents itself to 1 out of every 5 adults and is more prominently exhibited in women starting as early as 20 years of age. Although IBS creates a great deal of discomfort, it is not a serious health risk (does not lead to intestinal bleeding or cancer). Common pharmaceuticals prescribed for diarrhea (Lotronex) and for constipation (Zelnorm) to include over the counter medication, which can have serious side effects. What causes IBS? No one knows for sure, there is not one identifiable organic factor. Through clinical case studies and research, scientific consensus agrees the following various factors bring about IBS symptoms: Individuals with sensitive and reactive colons, immune system, reproductive hormones, diet, stress and emotions can strongly influence the colon. Since the colons reactive triggers are piped to the brain and are partly controlled by the autonomic nervous system, much like the heart and the lungs; the colon responds to stress (emotions and food intake stimuli) much like the heart and lungs (e.g., being freighted, fast heart beat and breathing, etc.). The colon reacts the same way by contracting too little, or too much, by removing too little water through the intestinal lining (diarrhea), or too much water (constipation). Both conditions cause cramping, boating and gas felt within the stomach. IBS “IS NOT” considered a disease. Natural Cure
