How to Treat IBS: 7 Commonly-
Prescribed Treatments That Do NOT
  Cure Irritable Bowel Syndrome
             Dr. Albert Snow
       Holistic Gastroenterologist
Irritable Bowel Syndrome, often referred to as
 IBS or colitis, is a gastrointestinal disorder,
and the recommendations for how to treat IBS
                run the gamut.
Because it is a very common disease, with
  statistics showing that every one out of five
adults suffer from IBS in the United States, there
 is a great deal of misinformation online about
          treatments for the condition.
The common symptoms of the disease include
abdominal pain, bloated stomach, heart burn
          and abdominal cramps.
Some patients may have constipation while
others may have diarrhea, fever, bleeding and
                weight loss.
IBS is a disease that causes a great deal of
        discomfort and life upset.
If you have one or more of these symptoms,
you'll probably begin searching the Internet
for cures and treatments for your condition.
Most of the information that you will discover
may help mitigate your symptoms but won't
cure the disease, even though the treatments
         are recommended as cures.
Here are 7 examples of commonly-prescribed
  treatments that you will discover as you
research how to treat IBS that do not work to
                  cure IBS:
1. Yoga
Yoga was practiced by the ancient sages of India.
There are some specific yoga asanas to improve
the digestion and to manage the symptoms like
  diarrhea, constipation, bloating and others.
Yoga is a combination of physical and mental
   exercises. The exercises focus on deep
breathing, de-stressing and restoring balance
to all organs and systems of the human body.
The yoga asanas for IBS include the forward
bend, the abdominal twist, the gas-relieving
       pose and breathing exercises.
While these practices may help
alleviate some IBS symptoms,
      yoga is not a cure.
2. Acupuncture and acupressure
These are Chinese medicinal practices that
  involve treating diseases by pricking fine
needles or apply pressure on specific points in
                  the body.
Both of these procedures are effective in
treating many diseases. An acupuncturist can
help in relaxing muscle spasms and improve
              bowel function.
While these practices may help mitigate some
IBS symptoms, acupuncture and acupressure
               are not cures.
3. Home remedies
Home remedies like taking ginger and
asafoetida are commonly recommended for
                  IBS.
Ginger paste mixed with lemon juice and
    honey and taken after every meal is
recommended to make sure the food you eat
             is digested well.
Drinking gooseberry water and eating
pomegranate seeds are other common home
remedies recommended for how to treat IBS.
While these practices may help alleviate some
 IBS symptoms, home remedies are not the
                    cure.
4. Stress management
Stress is often listed as a primary cause of IBS.
 Therefore, the recommendation to manage
 stress is to indulge yourself in a hobby that
                    you like.
Exercise regularly. Go for brisk
walking or vigorous swimming or
  jogging or cycling to reduce
             stress.
Sleep well. Practice yoga. While these
    practices may help reduce some IBS
symptoms, stress management is not the cure.
5. Hypnosis
A trained hypnotist helps you in relaxing and
   can help you learn how to relax tense
    abdominal muscles to avoid cramps.
While these practices may help overcome
some IBS symptoms, hypnosis is not the cure.
6. Diet
Avoiding processed foods, spicy foods, fried
   foods and acidic foods is a commonly
recommended protocol for treating IBS, as is
         eating a diet rich in fiber.
Actually, the best diet for IBS is one in which
you eat low fiber foods that won't aggravate
   the already-inflamed intestinal tissue.
This means no raw fruits or
vegetables, and no nuts, seeds,
or corn until you get your IBS
            fixed.
While these practices may help alleviate some
IBS symptoms, a different diet is not the cure.
Actually, when you're cured of IBS, you can eat
              whatever you like.
7. Life style modifications
Typical modifications include no alcohol and
 smoking, drinking plenty of water, regular
    exercise, and getting plenty of sleep.
While these are all generally good
recommendations for enhancing your lifestyle
   and may alleviate some IBS symptoms,
   lifestyle modifications are not the cure.
Here's the best way to treat your IBS --
naturopathy. IBS is caused from antibiotics
    you have taken over your lifetime.
These antibiotics have caused damage to the
mucosal lining of your intestines. If you want
 to get rid of IBS permanently, the damaged
       mucosal lining must be rebuilt.
Naturopathic treatment does wonders in
rebuilding the mucosal lining and intestinal
wall through ingesting natural nutritional
               compounds.
Naturopathy also helps to
reinoculate beneficial organisms
  to help rebuild your GI tract.
The above commonly-recommended
treatment options may help you manage your
              IBS symptoms.
However, rebuilding the mucosal lining of
your intestines is the only cure for IBS that
      works and is how to treat IBS.

  • 6. IBS is a disease that causes a great deal of discomfort and life upset.
  • 7. If you have one or more of these symptoms, you'll probably begin searching the Internet for cures and treatments for your condition.
  • 8. Most of the information that you will discover may help mitigate your symptoms but won't cure the disease, even though the treatments are recommended as cures.
  • 9. Here are 7 examples of commonly-prescribed treatments that you will discover as you research how to treat IBS that do not work to cure IBS:
  • 11. Yoga was practiced by the ancient sages of India. There are some specific yoga asanas to improve the digestion and to manage the symptoms like diarrhea, constipation, bloating and others.
  • 12. Yoga is a combination of physical and mental exercises. The exercises focus on deep breathing, de-stressing and restoring balance to all organs and systems of the human body.
  • 13. The yoga asanas for IBS include the forward bend, the abdominal twist, the gas-relieving pose and breathing exercises.

  • 15. 2. Acupuncture and acupressure
  • 16. These are Chinese medicinal practices that involve treating diseases by pricking fine needles or apply pressure on specific points in the body.
  • 17. Both of these procedures are effective in treating many diseases. An acupuncturist can help in relaxing muscle spasms and improve bowel function.
  • 18. While these practices may help mitigate some IBS symptoms, acupuncture and acupressure are not cures.
  • 20. Home remedies like taking ginger and asafoetida are commonly recommended for IBS.
  • 21. Ginger paste mixed with lemon juice and honey and taken after every meal is recommended to make sure the food you eat is digested well.
  • 22. Drinking gooseberry water and eating pomegranate seeds are other common home remedies recommended for how to treat IBS.

  • 26. Exercise regularly. Go for brisk walking or vigorous swimming or jogging or cycling to reduce stress.
  • 27. Sleep well. Practice yoga. While these practices may help reduce some IBS symptoms, stress management is not the cure.

  • 30. While these practices may help overcome some IBS symptoms, hypnosis is not the cure.
  • 32. Avoiding processed foods, spicy foods, fried foods and acidic foods is a commonly recommended protocol for treating IBS, as is eating a diet rich in fiber.

  • 34. This means no raw fruits or vegetables, and no nuts, seeds, or corn until you get your IBS fixed.
  • 35. While these practices may help alleviate some IBS symptoms, a different diet is not the cure. Actually, when you're cured of IBS, you can eat whatever you like.
