Description

What is IBS and how do I know I have it?

IBS stands for Irritable Bowl Syndrome and is a condition that effects the digestive system. Although the exact cause is unknown it has been linked to

  • Stress, eating and drinking habits
  • Food allergies or intolerances
  • Stimulants such as coffee
  • Hormonal factors
  • Family history of IBS

You will experience symptoms such as stomach cramps, bloating, excessive wind and some also have diarrhoea and constipation. Symptoms come and go and can last days, weeks or months at a time.

The condition has currently no cure and is a lifelong problem which make it very frustrating. However, with diet change and medication symptoms can be managed.

Peppermint oil in Colpermin IBS Relief Capsules is an antispasmodic which relax the spasm of the bowel wall. This then relieves the pain due to cramps and allows pockets of gas (can cause bloating) to pass through the bowel and out of the body.

Browns Pharmacy diet and lifestyle tips to manage IBS:

  • Try to find ways to relax
  • Get lots of exercise T
  • ry Probiotics for a month
